hey guys.. will the 04 sti brembo front brakes work on my 02 wrx?
if so.. will they be hard to fit?
will they work good?

 

They should fit fine. i think there might be an issue with older 02s as there brake bolt pattern might be different (IIRC)
you will also need to change your rims out to something larger that will clear the brembos.

 

98-07 Impreza/ WRX will directly fit STi front brembo calipers, must use 04 STi rotor spec.

 

You'll need bigger wheels.

 

what about the rears?

 

you also need the bolts from the sti caliper to bolt onto the wrx knuckle.

 

Will there be any difference in peddle feel w/ the 4 pot calipers?

Hey Mark, I think there was a thread on baautox about pedal feel on the WRX. I hear Subaru 4-pots maybe. Not sure about the STi Brembo's.

 

the front is direct bolt on. Just make sure you get 5x100 rotors from an 04 sti. The rears are different. Godspeed(UK) makes a kit that is around $500. You need the kit if you are going to do the rears. The inner diameter of the rear rotors for the parking break is 20mm larger. The kit comes with bigger parking brake pads to take up the space. In terms of stopping its night and day difference and absolutely no brake fade.

 

I think that you need 17'' wheels like the Rotas.When i buy my Rotas Torque the advertisment said that fits the Sti brembo calipers.

 

You can also check with mach v motorsports or wrxbrakes.com for the rear brembo adapter. Having just the front brembos and the tiny rear brakes is not gonna be a good system....braking distances will likely increase.

If you're looking for a good cheap upgrade, there are other options out there.
