Default Brake upgrades!

Hello there!

I have a friend with a classic facelift scooby UK
We were looking at brake upgrades and being a Honda guy I'm always looking for swappages with newer or bigger Hondas.

I recently found out that it is possible to change the classic scoobs brakes for the later Sti ones.

A few questions:

1: Are the hubs and carriers the same? (pretty sure it's bolt on)
2: What offset wheels for clearance? (I think for the ol' Brems we'll need at least 17-18" wheels)
3: Will the servo have to be changed to handle the extra strain from the brakes?


Thanks in advance people

Brembo's bolt straight on, later models have a different PCD but can be re-drilled to suit.

I run 17" with ET48, but its pretty much spoke design thats the limiting factor.
