Upgrade your sliding WRX brake calipers to the better monoblock four-pot front/two-pot rear fixed calipers with this kit. The full kit includes RED (not black like some other vendors sell) four-piston calipers for the front, two-piston calipers for the rear, Centric Posi Quiet brake pads all around, and caliper mounting brackets for the rear. You can also order the front or rear kits separately.
The front- and full-car brake kits use stock-sized front rotors, but you'll get larger rear rotors -- the same ones found on the Subaru BRZ -- on the rear kit and full-car kit. Front and rear rotors are included in the full-car kit.
Full-car kit includes front and rear calipers, rear caliper mounting brackets, Centric Premium front and rear brake rotors, and Posi Quiet pads. Front kit includes front calipers, Centric Premium front rotors, and pads. Rear kit includes rear calipers, caliper mounting brackets, Centric Premium rear brake rotors, and pads. Replacement pads are 2006-2007 WRX pads.
Note that the front calipers are made of steel, while the rear are aluminum. That might explain why the red color of the calipers are slightly different front to back. That's just the way it is; please don't call complaining that the calipers don't perfectly match. We promise that once they are on the car, most people won't be able to tell.

Fits all 2008-2014 Subaru WRX.
For years I’ve been wanting and needing better brakes. The stock brakes on the 2014 WRX was never the best. I was hesitant about upgrading to the 4 pot 2 pot 2006-07 conversion for a while because I wanted to car to remain mostly stock as possible. These brakes not only perform better, but also required no cutting or modification to any bolts or clamps. It bolted right on. My car now looks better, stops better, and remains looking stock at the same time. Subaru should include adding these as an option out the gate. I little more bite would not hurt, but overall I’m am completely satisfied.

More of a 4.5 star rating, as I wish the kit came with copper washers for the brake line, banjo bolts. Not a big deal, but it was just bad timing when EVERY parts shop in the city(Winnipeg, Manitoba CAN) was sold out of them for whatever reason. In any case, install was incredibly easy. The only difficult task was grinding some excess metal casting from the rear wheel knuckles, so that the adapter bracket would fit. Make sure you have a decent metal file, or grinding wheel. Brakes feel a bit better than the OEM 2009 WRX sliding, 4POT front, 1POT rear, but you make more up in the aesthetic looks. I'm using the calipers with 17in Sparco Assetto Gara wheels, and they fit perfect.

These brakes look and feel amazing and are relatively easy to install. Make sure you follow the Subaru pattern for brake bleeding, FR RL FL RR. That being said, a two thousand dollar brake kit should come with copper washer replacements for the banjo bolts, especially since you’re going to need 8 of them. You can probably get away with reusing them, but at this point, why cut corners? SEND THE DAMN COPPER WASHERS WITH THE KIT. Fast wrx was easy to work with and parts arrived quickly, would recommend.

After having both rear calipers replaced (under extended warranty,) I decided to make a pro-active change to the front calipers. The standard red color of the 2006/7 4-pot calipers was less than ideal for the WRX SE, which is a bright orange with black accents. So I decided to paint them black and, depending on how the decals came out, re-apply the Subaru logo in either white or orange. I used a caliper enamel paint with an activated hardener (the G2 brake caliper paint kit.) Couple of notes on that kit--the finish required multiple layers to fully coat and cover the underlying red, but the kit basically tells you to dump the entire bottle of activator into the paint can. If you do that, you won't be able to let the enamel dry/harden between coats. Also, the brush included is not very good, it started losing bristles with the first coat, depositing them along with the paint onto the calipers. I bought a $5 set of brushes of various shapes and sizes from Walmart that were much, much better and allowed me to do the detailed areas much easier. Finally, the mixing ratio of the hardener to paint may not be quite right. I used a syringe to measure out both the paint and activator, in the proscribed 8:1 ratio, and had to wait a full day for the enamel to fully cure. This might also have been because of the relatively low temperature in my garage, though. Even though the photos might look like the finish is rough, it did end up coming out quite nice. I think the lighting from above in the photos causes a lot of specular reflection that makes the finish look more uneven than it really is. The decals were produced by www.undergroundgrfx.com I had my mechanic install, along with new StopTech rotors, new wheels, and winter tires, exactly one day before our first snowfall :) So, I can't say exactly how easy the install was, other than that they only charged me for 2 hrs of their time.
