Brembos
I've done a search and I think I found the answer, but I'm wanting to double check before trying to buy but.......
Do the Brembos from the STI clear the std WRX wheels? |
No they won't. Simple solution is to fit sti wheels. The rears use a different handbrake drum too, iirc Godspeed make a conversion kit to enable sti brembos to fit the wrx.

Another Q.....
If I were to fit 18" and went for a big brake kit will all the 356mm kits clear the 18" wheels? |
It's down to the offset of the wheel rather than the diameter that governs fitment.
|
I'm gonna get a hispec big brake kit. Can't be bothered with all the messing about
|
Just make sure spare parts and pads etc are readily available :thumb:
|
I've seen hispec products available on the interntet so fingers crossed they will be bud

|

Argh yeah just seen them, Cheers guys :thumb:.
I've got 18" wolfrace rims on mine but I'm assuming that the 330mm kit will fit my 18's ?. Also don't you get a discount for being on scoobynet aswell ? |

I think that's the set I'll go for, I fancy keeping my 17" wheels and these should be a huge improvement over std and will look great. |

HI
The good news the kit linked above we have on offer at £899 at the moment , as we have brought out another kit using a larger Brembo 4 pot monoblock caliper , which uses the same pad as the STi calipers , the discs are still 330mm , but has a smaller diameter bell , and more available pad area on the disc , the new kit with larger pads is £999 with PF Z rated pads Attachment 29276 You can see the difference in the caliper , discs and bells compered to the link above Its £35 more if you want CL RC5+ pads , we can supply these kits with any make and spec pads , prices vary depending on what pads you want. Both these kits will fit under the standard 17" WRX wheels They are very good value for money , and work very well . Cheers Ian |
They do look nice I have to admit. And at a cheaper price than to some of the other places I've been quoted. Do the calipers come in red aswell ?
|
Yes calipers come in either the silver or red as in the photo , for £50 extra we can strip them and powder coat them any colour you want
Cheers Ian |
Just buy a set of Ap's and be done with it.

Haven't got £1800 for them at the moment mate

Other option is something like D2, stay away from Ksport though. |
Yeah I no what you mean bud.
Like the sound of god speeds package though, with the brembo calipers Godspeed discs and PFZpads though |

bummer, personally i'd just save your pennies, do it right once rather than pay 50% then 100% if that makes sense.
