Rear brembos
Can anyone tell me what the difference is between newage and hatch rear brembo calipers?
I'm know the pcd is different on the discs. |

Totally different designs , you cannot fit the Black ones to an earlier car , the Gold ones will fit straight onto your car , just need to fit thicker handbrake shoes , or the instert discs we do

Where does this leave the gold calipers on a spec C hatch? Unless they were lighter why would they retro fit earlier brakes? I'll have to measure the pistons.
The rear Gold calipers will not fit on a hatch , if you have seen them , they are probably the black ones repainted |
Just confirming they are different as I thought. Thanks guys

Spec C hatches were built with gold calipers. It's the only way externally to distinguish them from standard hatches. They can only have been repainted at the factory.
You can see the obvious difference in the 2 types if anyone is looking to buy them and don't know what they are , the caliper body in front of the piston , is rounded on the early calipers , and more hexigon on the later calipers , https://photos.app.goo.gl/h3DPSY72h2gcBsMc9 And they have STi logo's on the later ones , and Brembo on the early ones. Hopefully help someone not buying the wrong ones , I've seen quite a few sellers trying to sell the later ones to early owners , and not take them back when the buyer realises they don't fit Cheers Ian |
Thanks for confirming that

Yes you are correct , they are Gold from the factory , they are the same as the black ones , not the same as the earlier gold Brembo's , so even these will not fit an earlier model.
