4pot 2pot or sti brembos.
well i dont no what to get red wrx brakes or sti brembos for my svx, what you guys think? is the brembo way to much of a brake! i sure no there alot of money, or get the red wrx 4pot/2pot set up for my svx. i have the 4pot 2pot on my 350whp gc8 and it slows me down very good from 260kms with out no warping.

WRX calipers will not fit the SVX unless you do modifications.

The GC8 has way less mass to brng to a stop. You could go with the STi breaks, or look into aftermarket. There is on company that offers a seperate front and rear upgrade for our cars. I cant remember the name of it, but I did post it somewhere on this board. It may have been earlier in one of the origional Brembo brake threads.

so the wrx 4pot 2pot wont slow me down, but i have everything i need to swap these in a svx and makeing it a 5x100 bolt pattern. i have subaru 16inch six stars and gold fivestar wheels + 17inch wrx wheels and all the parts to make it work with 5x100, would just need to bye the calipers rotors and pads and rear backing plates.
with the brembos its going to cost me like 4grand and then i got to get wheels to make it all work, and i only want subaru wheels and parts only. it looks like brembos are going to be the only way to go! thanks for the help guys.

the other company that does brakes for the SVX is a company in Colorado called Precision Braking (I think).... They have a really good selection of options for the SVX... All the way up to 14" and 6 pistons in the front and 4 pistons and 13.5 in the rear (the last time I checked)... Unfortunantly, they are expensive... But atleast you don't have to go through Germany for replacements

Movit kit is fronts only. I am pretty sure a copy of my kit could be made fairly cheap by getting some custom made rotors from colemanracing.com (32mm thickness) and finding a suitable willwood caliper (or other make) to match. A machine shop could easily make the brackets. What do you think?
