I think there is some additional research to be done to validate the performance.. ie.. brake bias changes due to piston size, etc.. I know the Subaru 4-pots have been done successfully on a BRZ/FRS already, and these should be about the same impact.



I will do the rears. I have the calipers already. I just need a set of brackets from KNS Brakes and some lines and pads. Just have to save some pennies to order the final parts. Hopefully in the next month or so..
The WRX 4 pots suck. Not saying these are comparable but the WRX setup shifts bias towards the back.

You may have meant the STI full setup though
