NO !!!!!

Are any though . . . I thought all the Libs needed bog bones for the rear callipers and the rear rotor / hand brake issues?

yeah dog bones needed for your rears to fit and there is some mods needed to fit the handbrake as well. Forester SH and GRD WRX STI use the same handbrake set up so no mods needed for me.

Lad, you already have PCD 100 hubs - otherwise my 18" OEM Liberty rims would never have fit on.

The rotors separate from the hubs and then you would just have to source Brembo rotors which are a different thickness and larger diameter.

I'm reasonably sure that you need 18" rims to fit the bigger Brembo rotors and a different offset than your current 17"rims to clear the Brembos callipers.

So . . . for the odd $5000+ for the callipers, rotors, new cheap rims and cheap rubber you to could have Brembo callipers

PS - Remember that was part of the reason I got my new Enkei rims - to clear the Brembos when and if I ever get some. Oh and the fact that they look porn phat

Dave - sorry for the OT
