Upgrading my brakes?
Hi guys.
I have a standard WRX Hawkeye (other than a remap and a full decat exhaust).
Will this kit go straight onto my car?

Prettyy much but it seems a little expensive compared to some of the guys selling privately on here.

I bought a set of used AP 4 pots off ebay, bought new disc, pads and braded hoses for under £900.

How many want a brake upgrade, perhaps if there's enough of us then a group buy might be in order. Or is there one already running?

I totally agree, as long as the rears are working as they should and not seized up etc. then a decent front set up should suffice, so who's going to start the list.

as group buys were mentioned earlier.
i bought these from the japspeed group buy 2 weeks ago, 356mm kit but require 18 inch wheels, cheaper than those second hand brembos too.

Very nice, and I'm sure they do the job, but for us poor paupers who still have the standard set up, and are not looking to run HUGE amounts of power then perhaps a decent disc and pads in the original 4 pot caliper will suffice.
