BRZ with PP brakes rotor replacement options

[Elliotw]

Im looking at the OEM prices to replace the performance package brembo brake rotors and it's really high. I am curious if anyone knows what aftermarket rotors are compatible with the OEM PP brakes?

If vendors have anything I would love to take a look!
I am seeing ~$400 for rotors from Subaru. I'm not sure if that is single rotor or a pair. Either way should be some good aftermarket solutions.

Thanks,
Elliot

Yes there are plenty. Please let us know if you have any questions on application.

Do you have any more info on this? Especially rear rotors for the PP. I emailed KNS and the response was not helpful.

Not sure what the response was but I can see they only have fronts, link. If out PP rotors are the same as 2004-2011 STi's, you can simply order from the STi options, link.

That year range you gave has 3 different rear rotors btw.

04 sti REAR rotors, which are the only year for 5x100 in the us, do not fit. A rotor for the 08-17 fits if it's dual drilled. Like many dbas. Centric/stoptech does not appear to have a part number for these yet but it would be fairly trivial for them to drill different holes in something they already make.

This is what I asked KNS but they did not know.



They have some 17 STi rear rotors that *appear* to be dual drilled for $85.

if these fit, this is the cheapest I have found for rear PP rotors. I just wish we could get confirmation if they are dual drilled and fit the PP

KNS does appear to be the only place that has those more basis "street series" plain DBA rotors in this specific fitment, and they do appear to be dual drilled. I assume this is the link you wanted to post:

The other T3/4000 series dbas are dual drilled for sure but cost a good amount more each. Those are 42656S-10 or 42656XS-10 for the rear. I see no reason why these wouldn't fit the BRZ PP brakes. Matching fronts would be 42654S-10/42654XS-10. S is black, slotted, xs is gold hats, slotted and drilled.

Other than the high price, are there any other issues with the stock rotors?

Is there anyone who has already done a swap and can share their experience, as well as why they did it?

Unless your rotors need replacement due to wear, the OEM brembo rotors work well and should last a long time. Due to the high price of the OEM rotors, these replacements are a good alternative:

Thanks! I wonder what about the rears?

Do these fit too?

(Assuming I get https://www.counterspacegarage.com/s...ront-sti-5x100 as fronts)

04 sti rear rotors DO NOT FIT. The rotor size and bolt pattern and parking brake drum do match but the offset from the hat to the rotor ring is different. They will not line up with the caliper.

Centric/stoptech doesn't have a rear rotor for the PP brakes as far as I can tell. I did mean to send a guy I know an email about it the other day but now it's friday afternoon.


The dual drilled dba rotors and oem seem to be the only options for the rear. Anything for the 04 sti will fit up front.

Do you know any other options for rear rotors other than dual drilled DBA rotors and OEM for BRZ PP?
