i really want a complete usdm sti brake swap because they provide good stopping power and they are better than others when it comes to street driving and daily use. i would love the stoptech kit or the new racing brake kit but how do they handle when it comes to daily driving?

Dice, I don't know your driving habits, but the older 4 pots that soggynoodle's running are probably adequate for 99% of the people that own Scoobies.

Benefits:
-Price: 1/4 to 1/2 as much as brembo 4 pots.
-Same size rotors as WRX.
-Pads are cheaper.
-Rotors are cheaper.
-Did I mention price?

my cars my daily driver and i havent been to a track or autox yet, but would like to in the future. i just want something with much better stopping power then stock, something that looks better and cleaner, and something that will hold up well under hard braking for track use every now and then.
