Hello all,

Just doing a bit of research into upgrading the brakes on an SG model XT (i used search) and wonder if ive got the following right or people can add some more detail or correct me if im wrong;

Discs + Pads - Various available using oem calipers

Caliper upgrades:
Brembo 'Gold' Sti 8 Calipers - require a hand brake kit and 'fitting' kit to swap them from 115 pcd to 100? Do you need to run 17's to clear them and 314mm disc?

WRX-Pro - Comes as a kit so guessing straight fit?

K-Sport - Big Brake conversion, looks like its only fronts?

Tarox - Big brake conversion, fronts only

AP Racing - Silly money

Subaru 4 & 2 pot calipers - straight fit?

Thanks
