Brembo Brakes
 

Do brembo brakes and discs (5x100 pcd) from a new age fit a classic sti 6?

Has anyone done this, and if so, any comments?

Yes they will but the question is will your wheels fit over them as they need more clearance.

I've just done this upgrade... Paul's right, I had to change my wheels to a 42p offset. If you have a STi coupe with the R180 diff the rear brembo's should bolt on without adaptors, although I did need custom braided brake hoses.
One thing I haven't seen anyone talking about is the additional weight of the Brembo caliper/ disc combo... I can feel the resistance in changing direction and the slowed reaction over bumps... I will be changing to DBA two piece rotors to reduce the unsprung weight as soon as I can.
Overall braking feel and power is a big improvment over the STi 4-Pot and STi 2-Pot combo...

It's an sti wagon, and I'm just interested in the fronts at the moment.

I have 17" alloys already, not sure what the offset is.

I'm defo gonna look into this upgrade seriously as it does seem a cost effective way of upgrading from the standard sti 4 pots, without going the whole hog (circa £1500) of a big brake kit from the likes of ap/stoptech etc.

What size discs will the new brembo calipers accommodate?

Are dba discs a good solution?

Front Brembo rotors are 326mm. DBA are well regarded down under... there may be local UK alternatives, anyone?
