How to fit STi 2008 Black Brembos to a Blobeye WRX?

Hi, question for a friend in Germany: How can he fit Black Brembos from a 2008 STi onto his MY05 Blobeye WRX? What does it entail? Thanks

Disc PCD will be wrong, STi is 114mm and WRX 100mm.

Yes but he is using the calipers, not the discs. STI10 Discs are 225mm so he has to find 100pcd discs 325 Dia. Is this possible? Wot about mounting points for the Black Brembos? Help, Ian !!!

Just get the discs re-drilled to a 5 x 100 stud pattern , the frontbrakes will then bolt straight on.

All the front brembo discs are 326mm x 30mm

Cheers Ian

hi, if possible post pictures or rough dimensions, this may enable someone to suggest something which will work. its not going to be straight forward.

A previous thread that was posted said they wouldn't fit early cars, but from the photos posted, something simple was sorted out.

front and rears have been working fine on my classic.
