I wasn't actively looking. I was searching for TOM'S clear lens and this thread came up. I was like, "WTF?" so checked it out. Found you fools in here, so decided to join!

Some minor notes:

04-current for front caliper. The shape hasn't changed in 10 years.
04 rotor if you don't want to drill, 05-current if you're okay getting it drilled (as I said most STI rotors will be dual-drilled anyhow).

IF I GET 08 STI FRONT AND REAR CALIPER AND ROTOR- DRILLED TO 5X100- ITS OK?

Anyone know what brake line I should get for 08+ front brembo?

Stoptech told me that the FR-S/BRZ lines are 5'' longer that STI 08 lines.

So I can use both.


But Which one that you guys recommend?

lol

I believe the 08+ are basically the same as the 04-07s .

I use the stoptech lines , they're barely long enough, but works just fine .

Use BRZ lines, that's what I'd do.

I wish I knew this kit was this easy, I still might go to it down the road. The pad surface area you can get out of this kit is ridiculous compared to most other kits out there.

Just to make sure I have this correct:

Fronts:
Rotors: 328x30mm (Pads: 132mm x 78mm)
Rears:
Rotors: 316x20mm (Pads: 77mm x 62mm)

Front Pads:


Rear Pads:


It also looks like there are quite a few pre-drilled 5x100/5x114 rotors available. It seems like going two piece would easily fix that issue too. I saw a road test (believe by motor trend) that had the STI stopping from 60-0 in 109ft. That's pretty solid and a 600lb heavier car. I'd love to feel the force of these on a BRZ/FRS with track pads/ss lines. I've been impressed by my set up and very impressed by the AP Racing kit. This STI swap seems like a nice option for the price point.
