2004 WRX Sti Brembo brake Calipers

Someone in my area is selling some and I was wondering if anyone had any idea what I would need to do to make them work if that is possible.

after price, the Absolute first thing you need to know is what size pistons they have. if they are much bigger than 38mm you could have issues with proportioning and pedal feel.

Youll need custom brackets, custom rotors(or modified Sti rotors)

Sti's use a 326x30mm rotor....thats big, so youll probably need wheels too

Doesnt help as far as piston size goes. How much are they? Because if you make friends with someone in the USA you could get the direct bolton SS/TC kit for about $800USD(plus shipping, taxes, etc...) Maybe less if you make the right friends
