Ok, before I go and fit the front and rear brembos I have, which means my standard 16" wheels will no longer fit, what's the best possible setup for standard 4pots up front and 2 pots rear? In terms of discs/pads/fluid/brakelines etc.

Fast road use only at this stage.

Just fit the Brembo's and jog the standard 4 pots on.SJ.

Stainless pistons
Goodridge lines
Dot 5.1 (don't know the brand)
Godspeed grooved discs and Kevlar pads

That's what I used before fitting my front Brembos.

The Kevlar pads are decent for everyday driving/B Road blasts but I would see what either Godspeed/AS performance offer as a better brake pad.

Have you thought about Godspeed Big Brake kit as pretty sure he made it so you could keep the 4 pots/original wheels?

Cheers gents. I had the big brake kit on my last car and it means 17" as a minimum and to be fair the brembos are roughly the same cost now anyway with a 5mm smaller disc.

I'm thinking that a good pad and disc setup may be enough for my driving without the hassle of the brembo swap. I actually prefer the look of the oe Subaru calipers anyway.

I have Carbone Lorraine RC5+ pads on the front,OEM pads rear, recently rebuilt calipers with stainless pistons, ATE Super Blue fluid and braided hoses.

I cannot fault the setup. I do not take the Subaru on track but recently completed a 2,000 mile trip across the Pyrenees and Alps included sustained spirited miles up and down steep passes without as much as a grumble.

Very happy to have a great standard setup as I also want to keep to a 16" rim.
