WRX 2 pots vs Brembo fitment
Will the FHI 2 pot calipers from an 06/07 WRX fit on an 05 STI?

If anyone has them laying around, would you mind measuring the distance between the mounting holes?

They should being that the adapters (KNS, Kartboy) accommodate both the 2 pot and Brembo. Mounting should be the same but I do believe you would need to run a smaller rotor.

WRX 2 pots vs Brembo fitment
They will bolt directly to your 05 STI rear knuckles if that is what you want to know. You would have to use gravel spec rotors to make use of them.

As above.
The calipers will bolt straight on. You'll need to use the Gravel spec rotor which is 290mm diameter, but is designed for the STi 190mm handbrake (vs WRX's 170mm). I am unsure whether an aftermarket company makes these. |

So I'm assuming 06/07 wrx brakes (calipers and rotors) will bolt directly onto my 06sti? I'm currently running the brembos

no you need the rear rotor to suit the larger handbrake. it's a custom aftermarket part. DBA does one, i'm not sure who else.

DBA (sold through KNS) and Subaru (FHI) manufacture these parts, as I mentioned and gave p/n for. Last edited by mrsaturn7085; 10-01-2015 at 12:17 PM. |
