Default Front brake pads for brembo grand turismo

I am trying to order pads for my Brembo Grand Turismo system that I have on my 03 wrx sedan. I have located Hawk HPS pads for 03-04 sti's and was wondering if the 03-04 sti calipers are the same as the Grand Turismo caliper. Any help would be appreciated. Oh, the part number for the sti HPS pads are HB453.585

For those who have the kit and need replacement pads, the answer is 'no'. Sti brembo calipers are a different size than the brembo grand turismo kit caliper, so pads are different. I got in touch with Brembo to find this info out.

You should just need the backing plate style number and then you can use that to shop around for pads.

Thanks for the info but I had the model # for my grand turismo kit and brembo hooked me up with the part number for the pads and I purchased them from puremotorsports.

Thanks for the help.

GT kits use an F40/F50 caliper. The pad is a slightly different shape to the STi. Look up F40 and you'll find a decent range.

F40 = Hawk HB193F.670 (F= HPS you may want a different compound)
