Question Bugeye Brembo upgrade?

I have an 02 WRX bugeye wagon which requires new front calipers. I have been trying to get information on upgrading to Brembos as some one local is selling a full kit Brembo GT kit with drilled discs. They state thay are for 02>05.

I have been told that the PCD changed from 5x100 to 5x114.5 at 05>.

I have 18" PWRC OZ Prodrive wheels and dont know if they will clear the front brembos. I have been told that they come in two different offsets so I will have to check that.

What offset do I need to clear them?

Will the calipers bolt on?

Will the PCD be the same?

Has anyone done this upgrade or know of anyone who has?

Can anyone help!
