I only ask because I was heavily contemplating doing this. My buddy has a full set of the 06 4 pot/2pot calipers for me, but because of the rear brake bias issue of doing the full 4/2 pot swap I haven't done anything with them yet, and I was thinking of doing the sti brembo front, and the 2 pot wrx on the rear.
If I recall, there is still a shift forward in bias (which I am not a fan of) with Brembo front and FHI 2 pot rear but it's not as bad as the full Brembo kit. As others have said, it won't destroy your car, but it might not be the best way to go if you track your car.

I'll see if I have the numbers tonight.

EDIT: The rear FHI 2 pots shift bias forward. Front FHI 4 pots have no effect on bias.
