With KNS, they have the brackets that work like the kartboy, but their "v2" is meant to work on the "v2" newer uprights. When the rear suspension went to multi-link like what's on the brz, the calipers and rotors changed a bit. I think mostly the difference is the offset from the hub surface to the disc itself.
Another perfect explanation, thanks again. Are KNS the only place offering the brackets for the newer uprights? Guess it's too late for me since I just ordered the KNS one's but I'm always interested in learning other sources.
