And move the bleeders. Rear won't be as easy I thought.

It's not worth it IMO over other options like the AP kit from Essex.

The rear isn't worth it or the whole setup in general? BC these brakes for me are free.

Did you end up going 08+ STi calipers on the rears or did you go with 04-07 STi calipers with the an adapter bracket?

Also, did you end up with the DBA 5x100/5x114 rotors?
