Brake update:
I ordered some standard WRX calipers front and rear.
For those interested, the WRX 4 piston front calipers (not the Brembo's, although they would possibly work) bolt straight onto the SVX hubs. However, and this is probably of interest to you street guys who can run big wheels, the caliper sits further out than the SVX one does, meaning, for them to work, you would need much bigger discs.
This is a good thing, but as I run 15" wheels, it's useless to me.
I also checked the rears to match up the WRX 2 piston calipers, but the bolt spacing is all wrong, and I doubt they will be able to make work...but that's still a work in progress.
I will take some photos when I get back (away for about a week) of the calipers bolted up, and then some generic measurements in case any of you guys want to give them a go.
The WRX 4 pot runs about a 25mm thick disc (vs the SVX' 28) meaning any upgraded and larger disc would need to be the same thickness as the WRX.
So depending on what diameter you end up requiring, as long as you found the disc with the right height, and a 25mm thickness, you'd be on a winner.
I suspect that's what 'E' did but since he's gone AWOL, we don't full know.
