Looks sweet - I'd love to do it.

How do the brakes feel now?

How much all up!

you stop in a much shorter distance than with the stock pots.

cost.... i shudder to think, i got allot of the gear from ebay, some of it from OS. Brembos, new pads, sslines & rotors about 1500 clams..

now i have to save up for the rears

Excellent upgrade... Good to see more people think about making upgrades to a cars stopping power rather than just engine power.

Can I ask what you have done with the old 318mm rotors and two pots? Can I take them off your hands? :)

Well done! you definately have to get the rears to match.. why stop half way?! :D
you running stock STi pads & rotors looks like the 650 series?

Thats a very sweet job you have done there.

Its a good Safety upgrade as well I'm sure they would come in handy if your in an emergency situation
