Hey guys,
I have a set of WRX Front Calipers and Rotors. What do I have to do to get them to fit? Do I need different caliper brackets?
Thanks,
-Devan

As long as you have the brackets that went with the WRX calipers, they are plug n play.

As dscoobydoo said....they're plug and play as long as you have the brackets.
You'll need the rotors to match, and you will need at least 16" wheels.

thanks guys, I have project mu pads and brembo slotted rotors ready to go. I won't be able to put these on until spring. (15" winter wheels/tires on right now.)
Thanks again for the info.

Can somebody take a picture of their WRX brake setup?
Thanks

Top: Legacy bracket
Bottom: WRX
You can see the wrx bracket is taller and will place the caliper farther out, and how the mounting changed from that pin set up to two sliding pins in the bracket. The bracket attaches the same way as any other one, and the caliper bolts to it.

I can't wait to do this conversion.
I picked up my brakes yesterday, now I just need to get pads and turn the rotors.

I have a complete set of these, with an extra set of calipers, if anyone is interested...
