Need 04-05 WRX front brake calipers, or possibly just the carriers. I need them to get a better selection of race pads.

Thanks,
Walter

Walter,

You just need to swap the brackets to use the late 03+ pads.

I may be interested in your older brackets, shall I find a newer set?

I have my old ones which are the same as the 04/05. They work good but they look like they have been extremely hot since they were. I can bring them this weekend and if you want them you can make me an offer if not no worries.

Thanks guys,

The brackets(carriers) are all I need, but I figured no one would be selling just the brackets. Dan and Frank are suggesting PFC pads, but they don't make a version compatible with the older 02 brackets.

But if the entire caliper is cheap and in better condition than mine, why not swap the whole thing.

Andrew, sure you can have my brackets if you find new ones.

Paul, which year are yours?

Thanks again.

Walter, Pauls are the ones you are looking for.

Go with the FHI 4 pots.

Don't have to worry about the sliders, bushings, rubbers.

literally endless pad choices, cheaper choices, and take you 2 minutes to change pads.

Thanks Chris,
I had the 4 pots before and sold them. Might not have been the best thing to do, but I don't want to invest much more into this car. The later version 2 pots will enable more pad choices and will be much less expensive.

Did you still need someone to test pads? *grin*
