Brake and Rotor Upgrade for 2011 STI limited
I've searched around, read stickies, and looked at vendors. All they have are brakes and rotors for up to 2010 and nothing for 2011. Would the 2010 Hawks HPS pad work and would the 2010 rotors work on 2011? I have a 2011 Limited STI. Any links would be helpful

The brakes should be the same for all '08+ STI's.

Na never got a chance to. Just started researching ahead of time so I can get the parts before hand. Will give them a call before I make an order.
That's what I thought but don't know why they only list saying 08-10 instead of 08+ |

hawk hps isn't an upgrade on any sti's.... the pad is already pretty agressive on the stock brakes.

I'm looking for slotted/drilled rotors and pads that bite a bit harder. When I had a bolt-on TSX, I used Hawks HPS with stoptech slotted/drilled and it gripped harder. I just want to have an idea of what grips better for braking in terms of pads. For rotors I already know what I want, just have to find it. But in terms of pads, what would be an upgrade from the stock STi pads? I'm looking for pads that are a bit more aggressive since I plan on autox in future and want pads that would work well.
