will gold wrx sti 53 plate brembos with 326mm discs fit directly to my99 as a replacement without having to buy a fitting kit/extra brackets etc?and will they fit under 18" rota gra alloys? im hoping that the discs and calipers are all ill need???????

the front brembo's bolt straight on but you need the brembo bolts as they are longer than the 2/4 pot ones (i have a set on my98).

rears need a bracket.

can't help with the alloys i'm afraid.

front or rear?

You need 17 inch wheels and ones that will accommodate the calipers.

thay do fit under some of the 18"wheels i think someone maybe miss read your post and possibly thought you had put 16".

Not all 18's will fit them under, neither will 17's, they need to clear the spokes, if they dont then your screwed basically

anyone know if they will fit under the 18" rota gras????????

addison

just fitted 18 x 8 Inch et 45 Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2
they were close giving me 3mm clearance

the wheels that i took off were Kato racing and gave me 50mm clearance
so as said above its the spokes that give the clearance

i would think that they would fit but you need to check to with someone like Keith at Revolution

If you have issues with the spokes being too close to the calipers then you could use hub-centric spacers to bring em out 5-10mm?

Wouldn't imagine there will be clearance issues with regards to the size of wheels you have.

I got 18" Rota GRA's with Brembos fitted



As said you will need to upgrade the bolts plus you will need to fit new brake hoses as they need to be longer than the oem one's fitted. Goodridge do an uprated hose for this specific conversion. Just to add I do not have spacers fitted.

stunning...

Cheers

I found a huge difference when I had the rears fitted as well, the car balanced out under braking instead of a nose diving sensation with the oem rears still on, it's not as complicated as it sounds.

you only need a jar a spanner and someone to press the pedal. Oh and some fluid. Should get it done in about hour and a half

go steady with the bleed nipples though,they tend to seize.
