No bigger rotors, no changing hubs, etc. That, combined with s/s brake lines, should be a "Stage 1" brake upgrade. Simple, not very expensive, and something that won't require special tools or a lot of time.
Ryan Clark, not sure if he is on the forum here, is working on an adapter that will bolt up with cheap 4 pots that can be found here.

I don't know if your famaliar with some of the wrx community happenings, but caddilac has a very cheap brembo that bolts up to wrx's with a simple adapter that is now easy to get, I believe with a adapter those cheap brembos should work with the svx
