We took a nice shot of the complete Endurance System today:

Thanks Fester. Install instructions can be found here. Install is essentially the same for both the Sprint and Endurance Systems.

That's a beautiful brake system, overkill for my needs but good to see the AP S100 rear pads coming because that's what i intend to put on mine when it's time.

Do you guys have pads for 2008 WRX rear calipers, which come on the base model 86s in some oountries?

FreshFRS · 11-10-2012, 09:57 PM

Any news on the rear kit?

I will check options tomorrow...I'm sure we can get something from one of our suppliers.

No news on Competition rear kits. The AP Racing Formula Systems will have a four piston rear kit.

track_warrior · 11-11-2012, 10:16 AM

Installed them on the car cant wait to test them out at the track

.

Besides clearing 17x8 +45 rpf1's they also clear 18x8.5 +47 Work Ultimates with tons of space. I promise to take better pics i have just been lazy and using my iphone 4's potato camera.

Here is what my stock rotors looked like and ferodo ds2500 pads after two track sessions, ill take pics of the stock calipers but the dust seals are pretty much useless:

A sprint rear would be awesome or at least some j hook 2 piece rotors

Gents, this kit is definitely in my near future. However, not until early next year.

I've got 2-3 track days on the calendar for the remainder of this year but I'm worried about the front oem calipers leaking or blowing dust seals etc...I'm considering cancelling the track days to save these calipers. The BRZ is still my daily. I don't want the car to be unsafe on the street. Was considering going with Hawk HP+ just for a cheap stop gap to get me thru w/o killing my rotors and calipers. I'm also considering keeping the sticky tires at home.

What would you guys do? Am I overreacting?

most likely your dust seals will be bad after a couple track days, but better fluid and some pads should be enough to avoid caliper damage (minus the dust seals)

@JRitt
Had a quick glance over the fitting instructions and noticed these ambiguities:
"(Left/Driver)","(Right/Passenger)","Driver side" and "Passenger side". I appreciate you're in the U.S.A. but I'm thinking these kits will be going overseas too.

Driving home from Sebring. Brakes worked AWESOME. Absolutely no issues and tons on confidence when braking
