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
“Aisin and Advics” are OEM Toyota Manufacturers so you can get a caliper that says that and still have OEM quality.
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.
I got the black 4/2 pots on my 2015 WRX. I love them, would do the swap again if I had to.
Okay actually got some stuff done this weekend. Got the new rear spindles, refurbished backing plates, rotors, metal lines and soft lines, re conditioned original calipers…sure I’ll be revisiting these lol.
Normally I still buy Honda parts and fluids with normally yearly servicing. in the last 14 years only expense has been both rear calipers needing changing due to seizing.
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
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.
Why do I have to screw in the brake calipers with the world's stupidest Phillips?
I think stuck caliper so I order new rotor, new pads and new caliper. 3 days later I re assemble new parts and bleed brakes. Test drive, hot brakes again… anyone see this ever?
