Question Do you know the torque for WRX front/rear calipers?

Anybody know the factory specs for bolts that carry caliper on spindles, front and rear?

I have not had a chance to download info from Subaru yet,

Thanks in advance,

Jim

27.5 ft*lb of torque for the caliper body to the support

I mean the large 17mm-wrench-size bolts at the top and bottom of the F caliper (holes in caliper are threaded).

And the rear bolts are 14mm wrench-size.

thanks
