Cast-Iron is one material that is extremely cost efficient to cryo-treat. It responds very well.
But something like Billet Steel doesn't show the same benefits.
Even bigger brakes...

I still really like these brakes, but I am still using them with the original pads they likely came with on the LGT they were removed from. I'd like to get some Cobb Street pads, but haven't gotten around to it.
A larger master cylinder would be a very good thing to do with this upgrade, but I don't think it's necessary. Once again, the stock 00-04 LGT calipers are the same as the 02-06 WRX, and the 05LGT is larger, but not hugely so.
Pads will make all the difference.
I still haven't really pushed these hard, mostly because of ambient temps and timing, but they're certainly very able to stop this car promptly.

Mov'it calipers? Never heard of them. Got pics and specs? I thought you were using the STi Brembo's?
Ferodo pads catch fire, from what I hear.

The calipers are indeed STI Brembo's.

It's german. I don''t know any specs, but the test their material on the Nürburgring or Nordschleiffe

Take a look at their site. I don't think they make disc's for WRX calipers
