    Subaru brake on S14?

    Hi,
    Got a set of D2 Racing brakes on my subaru (5X114), wonder how hard is it to convert it to S14? I heard that the brakes are all the same, I only need the right bracket.

    Anyone can advise?

    Thanks!

    I think the centre bore is to small

    Thank you. Is there any expert I can ask from here?

    Ideally, I will buy the original brake for the STI, take the D2 off and put it on the S14a. The S14 currently have a R33 GTR brakes so that can take off and sell it.

    Some Subarus, like the Impreza bug-eye WRX used the same 280 Sumitomo setup as the S14 have as standard so, if they'll fit the 2002-2004 WRX they'll fit the S14.

    They have Brembos as standard so I have no idea if they will fit. Should be too hard to try them, should it ?

    The Subaru sumitomo caliper has a different mounting bracket, along with the different disc offset and centre bore on subaru's.

    I would have thought you will need different lines, disc bell and caliper adaptor brackets and then they will fit.

    Although they use the same pads they are not identical to s14 callipers as the mounting holes are in a different position.

    I'm not saying that a custom bracket won't get them to fit but the won't just bolt straight to the s14hubs
