Rebuild/install thread: Endless Big Brake Kit from WRX onto BRZ
A friend of mine is semi-parting out a WRX, and I was able to secure the Endless Big Brake Kit off his car.
The calipers are the mini-6 pot calipers, and rotors measure 326x30mm. I'll be taking apart the calipers and having them rebuilt, as well has cleaning up and reanodizing the rotor hats as well as the calipers. Stay tuned... On WRX: Stock vs Endless: Stock front rotor vs Endless: -alex |

No updates yet, I just got around to taking everything apart today.
I might not be able to refinish/reanodize the way I want, because several steel parts of the caliper can't be taken apart, so it might prevent the calipers from being refinished. -alex |

Are you talking about the pad plates on the inside of the caliper? Those are secured with threadlocker and SHOULD be removable. You'll probably need new screws as the heads of the old screws will likely strip out.
