STI Brembo HELP ~

HI, Guys..here in Italy I find some brakes set of Brembo (black, red, silver, Maserati or Alfa Romeo customized) without right brackets for BRZ.
Brembo produces some "universal" (the same) brake set and for each car only the brackets are specific. Brembo here is like the "Agency": top secrets all over and no help and support and brackets aren't sold standalone.
Anyone can help me to find the schema or a fitment template to build them fitting BRZ Hardware?
Here some Brembo set are installed widely on FIAT/ALFA and therefore is more easy to find (and cheaper) but brackets still remain a trouble.
Thanks for support. I try this way...

Buy STI brembo brakes...no bracket needed. You'll spend more Euros fabbing a custom bracket and rotor to fit your Alfialamborrari brakes than buying OEM equipment from the US or whatever godforsaken European country actually has spare STI parts.

Ciao bella.

..Brembo GT calipers coming from "wholesaler" that dismantle test cars of FGA/Chrysler sells them @250,00 Eur for pair.....and some test cars were only for window dressing or lower mileages than the actual mine....Just done for other cars...
STI brembo brakes are the same of Alfa Romeo Giulietta TB , 4 pistons 34 mm, only brackets change...and paint.

yes... a lot. I have almost 15 pairs.....of those. I know that in UK someone produces bracket kits for old Impreza near swapping to new brake MY 2011, but only for WRX....(rear too).

Your best bet is to ask Brembo Italy for the specification documents, I don't see them hosted online on their webpage.

My used brembos also cost £150, so worth the time. I'm fab'ing custom brackets, and bells so I can use AP racing disks. More race. More!

Off topic, but you still need to remove the last four unicorns on your signature as it means other posts get squished up as yours takes the maximum width, like an oversized picture.
