fronts no problem at all, bolt straight on, rears need special handbrake shoes and the dust shield taking off, remember you also need wheels that clear the front calipers, cheapest option is a set of sti alloys.

Yes as above , the front and rear brakes will bolt straight on , you need to make sure the fronts will fit under your wheels , they dont fit under the standard WRX 17" wheels.

I can supply you the special handbrake shoes to fit them , I'm only in Bridgend

Cheers Ian

Take one off and see

On the back of the wheel it will state the offset. Only the PWRC1 wheels that have a ET46 will fit brembos, PFF7's in 18" have a higher ET but still fit. Best to log onto the Prodrive website to identify your wheel and look at the spec.
