brembos

[Guest]

On the topic of Brembos -

I'm currently running Brembo front with GDB 2pot (non Brembo) rears, using an adaptor to suit the rear end of my BE Legacy.

These ones: (not my pic)

I'm looking at fitting a set of rear brembos to my car. Is the adaptor for those^ 2 pots & Brembo rears the same? The Brembos in question come with those DBA conversion rotors (5x100, smaller handbrake shoe etc to suit 160 rear end).

Thanks.

Has he been gypped with s***ty brakes?

No, type R v LTD isn't the same as a type R.

Be legacy- yip will bolt straight up

[D-Style]

But keep the Brembo mounting bolts, as they are different to the normal 2pot bolts

so the v limited came with worse brakes than just a type r?

Yip

1 more question relating to the 2pot rears/Brembo question on the last page -

Do the brake lines use the same connection at the caliper?

Thanks/

it hasnt been answered yet but the brembo rears wont mount to your rear calipers. im fairly sure you'l have an R180 rear end so you require the r180 rubs from a v5/6 sti (that had 2 pot rears).. or v7/8 sti rear hubs.

the fronts mount right up.

good luck with wheels as above haha. I also have three sets

i got a ver4 sti type r

it fits into 100% front and back apart from the skid plate which needs to be hammered flatten or removed which i did

as long as your hubs are R180 it will fit ( if it has 2pots as funky said)

btw your type r v-limted isnt a STI is just a poor man version of a turbo coupe

answer is Yes. all the break lines are the same

note still if your putting the rears on a BE legacy the rear hubs require adapters

To bolt to the calipers? I have some that I'm using atm with the 2pots which should work with the Brembo rears (see previous page)

I am keen! Will these fit in a BE5 2002 Legacy RSK? And what else do I have to change (rotors etc)?

[LAZLO]

if i took the brembos and hubs out of a car,would it fit straight into my forester if i replaced them??

[WRXONP]

you won't need to change front hub but you will need to change Rear

[Guest]

to change the back hubs you will need to change the drive shaft and diff also

[Guest]

I am after the rear adaptors to put Brembos in my BE5 02 Legacy.
