Hi,
Can somebody answer me what is the difference in size, between the brakes of the WRX and the Euro spec STI(265HP)?

294mm front brakes of the WRX to 300mm rear brakes on the STi need i say more?
Ok i shall
Front 4 pots on the WRX are Subaru's own, the 4 pots on the STi7 are 335?mm Brembo's, these have been tested by a few magazines and their sheer ability over some of the more powerful cars out there have shocked them (Better stopping power than 911 brakes).
hope that helps

Tony

WRX 4 pots are also made/developed by Brembo I think.
