I would think you can get a slightly used OEM caliper for next to nothing?

Heh. Well the living room has the ac already. I was actually considering getting a portable room ac unit for my bedroom. Any experience with those? The problem there is they all require the grounding plug and none of the outlets in my bedroom are three plug . So I’d have to run a long extension cord.

So I thought, specially state is live is a literally Subie maniac. There’s crazy ton of Subie driving around... but somehow single OEM caliper, most places are asking $150~$200. Also same price as stealership. Im talking bout used single caliper. Not brand new or anything.

You sir are correct. You can install WRX 4 piston calipers in front without any modification. Just need wrx rotors. Rear 2 piston calipers due need bracket. Also F/R brake bias do change small bit, but that can be fixed w brake pad setup.
