Default Wrx hatch caliper upgrade

ive read that the sti hatch rear brembo calipers bolt straight onto a wrx hatch without any fuss. Can someone confirm this is correct ?. Will the dust shield need to be trimmed also ?

many thanks

Yes, bolt straight on, as long as your changing disc's also, use the Brembo bolts, dust shield wants sorting or removing completely.

Cool! I thought they did. I'll end up getting new discs and pads, ones on there now are pretty old. I'll probably end up trimming the dust shield, if not I'll just remove it.

cheers buddy

done this on my hatch and just removed the dust shield as I put on the larger discs... never had any issues with it either.
