Okay. Here's the story: friend of a friend buys an Evo. Friend's friend wrecks Evo -like totaled. However, the car has pretty much been cannabalized since said wrecking. I, however, end up with the brakes (the whole set; fronts and backs, master, etc..). Before I try anything crazy, will these fit on our cars? Is retrofitting Evo brakes onto an BC/F worth doing?
If it's more trouble than it's worth I'll just get rid of the things or Ebay them.
Sorry to chime in without doing the requisite search thing, but I'm kinda excited. It's not every day that I end up with really nice car parts to do with whatever the heck I want. hehe
So I have these brakes...

If Mitsubishis take a 5X100mm bolt pattern then the rotors will at least fit on. If you could get them to work it woud be pretty cool. I really know nothing about the EVOs braking system so it would be hard to say what would need to be done. Who knows, it may not even be worth it.

The bracket SHOULD bolt up, but your stock master cylinder won't be able to push them.
The rotors share specs with the STi, from what I recall, so STi rotors will bolt to your hubs and under the new brakes.
But you need 17's with a thin spoke profile.
Easiest thing to do, look. See if they will bolt up. If they do, consider using them. If not, sell them.
STI Brembo kits usually go for around 1k or so on e-bay.
