How to: Brembo STi 08+ (black) on a BRZ 2013

Donnor car: STI 2010
Receiver car: BRZ 2013

Needed pieces:
-Front Caliper STi 2010 X2
-Rear Caliper STi 2010 X2
-Front Backplate STi 2010 x2
-SS braided brake hose (Can used the rubber one, from the BRZ or STI)
-Rotor and pads STi 2010
-Caliper bolt STi 2010
-Spacer 3/4" for the front X2


First of all, rotor have been redrill to 5x100

It's a straight bolt on mods! It took me 4h to do it, taking my time, drinking a beer.. no rush

BRZ OEM front brake





BRZ OEM rear Brake




We got to modify the front back plate. drill a new hole for the center bolt and re-work the outside shape of the 2010 STI

BRZ front backplate


STi Backplate





Front Rotor size difference:





Rear Rotor: E-brake is EXACTLY the same!! I don't even had to adjust it!!



We got to trim the BRZ backplate around the caliper bolt and the outside part
that interfer with the bigger rotor.





Rear Rotor size difference




WE got to install it with the caliper's specific bolt. Bleed it, with both bleeder. they have to be on the TOP of your caliper, not pointing down. I had to add 3/4" spacer to clear my wheels







The braking feeling is smooth on the pedal, but If I need to, it's completely insane! It feels and look like if it was like this from the factory. I love it!
