Yup -=and they are lighter

nice. I know in the thread here a couple people have said it is more of a linear move going from the brz brakes to the 4pot 2 pot setup. Anyone else tried this out and feel differently?

Reason I ask is im weighing the options if this is the route I should go or just get a set of frozen rotors a set of hawk hps pads and call it a day.

Tips and tricks

I am super excited to try this out as soon as it warms up. Anyone have any install tips and tricks? Does the front dust shield need to be modified at all?

Beyer Subaru 02-22-2014 10:26 AM
No tips or tricks for the fronts. They will bolt right up and you won't need to trim or change anything. The only thing I found that I needed was the various shims and spacers for the new calipers/pads.

Hey bro I got the same set up, but now my brake pads are done... Do you have the part number for the brake pads? Thanks a mill...

Here is my set up... Just placed TRD Stickers (removed the Subaru off)

Thank bro :cheers: :burnrubber: :thanks:

Those pieces look pretty complete. The only thing out of OE spec I went with was the Stoptech stainless lines.[/QUOTE]

You'll have to go to an online catalog and look up front brake pads from a 06-07 Subaru WRX.

Is there any issue with the fact that you swapping sides on the front calipers to fit them to the BRZ?

The FHI 4 pots are not differentially bored, so no - no issues.

Does it put the bleeder valve in the wrong place?

You just swap them left for right and the bleeders are in the correct spots :cheers:
