New 4 Pots on my BH + Pics

[twinturboboy]

Just thought I would post some pics of my newly upgraded Brakes on my E-tune Legacy - Loving them! stops heaps better!

The pads are EBC Green stuff and the Rotors are DBA 4000 T3s

Oh and also I polished my headlights

Nice 1 hey what product/method did you use on headlights? mine on BH9 Outback not that great.

I have this stuff called blue magic metal polish, quite expensive and rare I could get some for you if you want

How long do your headlights stay that clear for? I use the Meguiers stuff but it needs doing every few months

Rotors and Calipers look cool.. 8)

I did it about a month ago and its stayed the same but i\'ll see how long it lasts I guess

I could get you some Blue Magic polish $20 for a small amount, 30 for medium pot and about 65 for a big pot

LMK if anyone wants any

Are you going to fit the matching 2 pot calipers on the back

Don\'t mean to sound like a hater (because I love how clean and polished the front brakes look), but I always feel slightly disappointed when I see big flash 4 pot brakes on the front, and dirty old 1 pots on the back. Alfa Romeo, Mercedes are bad for this.

Probably just my OCD kicking in ;D

Why most sti have 4/1 pot? If I upgraded rears I would go single pot rear with the big rotors as its bolt on w/no hubs and cheap.

2000 grit sandpaper (with water) and cutting compound is a good option for headlights.

Helps a huge amount if you have a buffer too.

I think it\'s nice having a matching set, especially when the fronts look so so good on this car. I\'m not necessarily saying to upgrade, more for looks.

Mate I would love to but first you have to buy some Kartboy adapters from the US, cost? $250 for a pair, then you have to source some 2 Pot Calipers and you are looking for around 150-300 depending on the condition, and after that you would have to get them certified

As much as I would love them ;D I probably wont bother, although If I hadn\'t already bought my 4 Pots I possibly would have bought these

Would be Ideal for someone who wants to do the same as me!

Or swap hubs cheaper than adaptor+cert. Im running 12mm thick kartboy or style adaptors upfront bloody solid passed cert no problem at all.
