I do, the Subaru number is: B3110VA040
This is the link to where I ordered from. Any mainstream Subaru dealer will be able to get these for you. Keep in mind that the price may or may not reflect the inclusion of STi center caps. If it does not then you will have to purchase those as well.

Well, new tires and wheels (with conversion spacers) went on today and the fitment is fantastic! Not only does this setup look great, but it's really got some meat to it. With 245 section tires it is now exceedingly difficult to get the rear end out. I'm guessing this won't be a problem with the upcoming SC though.

More photos on main page!

Can't wait for them!!

Do you have the part number or shop for the WRX BBK? I'd like to put them on my future BRZ as well.
Do the Calipers fit like plug and play or do you need some spacers because of the bigger Discs (326mm)?

Thanks.

I believe the correct part number for just one caliper via subaru parts america is 26292FG000.

Look at this thread before contemplating the conversion. It outlines the process of doing the conversion. One of the trickiest things is that in order to maintain proper piston orientation you will need to flip the bleeder plugs to the opposite end. This isn't so bad on brand new calipers, but if you buy used, more likely than not you are screwed. This was me the first time I attempted the conversion. I ruined a used set of front calipers because I had to drill out the bleeder plug. Expensive mistake. Ended up buying brand new and didn't have any problems.

My other suggestion is to consider weight saving and go with lighter two piece rotors. DBA sells a lighter version, but for more $$$.

Let me know if you have further questions!

Haven't got the SC installed yet (soon tho, we're talking a matter of weeks), but I also have other machinations... stay tuned.

Hold on... Are you saying you're dropping a Harrop into a 2017?

Well... The Harrop is going into my MY14. I am going to do a MY17 bumper conversion!

However, when you think about it tho, despite the low friction internals once you drop the SC on you would negate the 2017 intake manifold, and once you put new headers on you negate the 2017 exhaust manifold so... yes... the Harrop SC is technically going on a 2017 lol!

Hell yeah. It's the next project. I just saw a DIY thread for the retrofit so it put me over the edge.
