Brembo Brake caliper

Yeah I dropped to 19s on mine and it's night and day difference for daily driving. Went with 19x8.5 ET45 and 255/50R19 tires - plenty of clearance over the Brembos and the ride is way more civilized. Still looks good too, the 21s were just brutal on city streets

Pros: ride is way more civilized
Cons: 21s were just brutal

I got the powerstop remanufactured brembo 4pot/2pot for a 2008-2017 STI on my 2018 WRX I found online for less than $800 with pads, calipers (red powder coated) and drilled and slotted rotors.

Pros: less than $800
Vehicle: Subaru

I’ve had a 2016 Touring 6-6 since new and overall it’s been pretty solid. I’ve had two brake calipers seize and parking brake seized as well. Otherwise no issues mechanically other than regular maintenance. 76,000km

Pros: solid mechanically
Cons: brake calipers seized
Vehicle: Honda Accord
Mileage: 76000 km

Nismo Brake caliper

Crazy price for used calipers when the Nismo kit is almost a grand less, same quality, similar pad availability and a bracket that locates it in a better spot.

Pros: same quality, similar availability
Cons: crazy price, used calipers
