Default Brake question

Hi people I have a my95 wrx turbo.
It is fitted with the gold brembos on the front
But was wondering if its possible to fit a
Large set on the back rather than the small brembos.
Reason I ask is because I have a spare set and would like
To fit them the rear ????

If you are asking if you can fit brembo front brakes onto the rears , then no , it would be nigh on impossible to fit the front brembo 4 pots onto the rear , but even if you could , the brakes are too powerful for a rear caliper and would knock the braking balance out , and the rears would lock up all the time.

All you need to compliment what you have done already is fit the rear brembo 2 pot calipers are 316mm discs , it will stop very well with them fitted.

You will need either the thicker handbrake shoes or the inserts in the rear discs as your handbrake is a smaller size than the STi , and the sti handbrake shoes won't fit on your backplate .

We offer a mounting bracket kit and thicker handbrake shoes for £150 , or 316mm grooved discs with inserts to reduce the handbrake size down and a mounting bracket kit for £199

Hope this helps
Cheers Ian
