Question Brembo upgrade

quick question....

I have the Sti brembo front and back calipers and discs, do they bolt straight on, or do you need any brackets because of the bigger discs?

I have an MY03 WRX.

I have this 4 Pot Brembo kit with 335mm Godspeed discs on my MY03 WRX & you can see the bracket & spacer in front of the caliper on the left.

I would imagine any set-up with a bigger disc would need the caliper moving out to accomodate it.

Front calipers are a straight swap. The rears are a big job..... not a direct swap. Lots of work and £. Best to do a search on NASIOC. It's a lot of hassle for not much gain.

Yes the front will fit no problem , just need the right offset wheels to clear them , the calipers are different to the Godspeed ones as the STi calipers have the lugs moulded in with the castings , they are lug mounted , the Godspeed ones are radially mounted so you fit a separate caliper bracket , so you cant fit a bigger discs with the STi ones but you can with the Godspeed ones , if that makes sense.
