AP Front with Sti Rear or Stock Rear?
If I get the AP Sprint kit should I switch out the rear for some used Brembos or leave it stock?
AP Kit: http://counterspacegarage.com/produc...t-brz-frs.html 04 Brembo: http://www.ebay.com/itm/04-07-SUBARU...p2047675.l2557 Older Brembo http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-POT-CALIPE...7b5a74&vxp=mtr I understand the rear brembo's need the extra bracket and dual drilled rotors. |

The AP sprint kit id designed to work with the stock rears. If you swap them out you may change the bias and actually reduce your braking performance.

Sti rear is smaller than OEM rear. Effectively a downgrade...

I think that's a nice bonus about the essex AP kits. They aren't blingy and actually match the stock rears somewhat.
