the front brembo calipers and discs will fit straight on providing u use the brembo caliper bolts,not sure on the wheels as it depends on offset.

If you have the standard wrx wheels then you will have to change them, the STI wheels are pretty cheap to buy off places like ebay.

i think its the width and the offset.but you would need to make sure they are NOT sti 114 pcd(05 onwards) yours will be 100 pcd so any sti before 04 will be fine.
