Brembro brakes from a WRX?

Is it possible to replace the stock brakes for a used set of brembro brakes (rotors and calibers) from a wrx if it is same 5x100 bolt pattern?

Cool.I hope this will be a cheaper alternative to replace the stock brakes with the drilled or slotted brakes.and still be able to maintain the stock look of the car.

Or buy drilled and slotted Rotors (I would just get slotted not drilled) for your calipers.

Its been talked about to death on threads here and and done it already.
Its not a simple plug and play operation and requires quite a bit of modifcation.
P&L motorsports sells kits to do the swap for around 1800 for the Front and 1800ish for the back last i was told.
