AZP Installs Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 There is a lot of info on the site about getting Brembos installed on the LGT. You are correct, the rears need an adapter bracket to install. The fronts are bolt on. You just need the STi sized bolt to put it on the hub and the STi rotor. The rears you just bolt the bracket on the hub and the caliper on the bracket. It might be a good idea to upgrade the brake lines to stainless steel lines and put in some better fluid. Overall it is a good upgrade but somewhat costly. Just to note that the STi calipers are aluminum and the bolts are steel. So make sure whomever installs them anti-seizes the bolts well. After time they can cold weld themselves to the hub making it difficult to get off when changing rotors. If you have any questions we are happy to help. -Jake http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/91072632.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/133406601.jpg AIM: AZP Installs | E-mail: sales@azpinstalls.com | 725 Fairfield Ave | Kenilworth, NJ 07033 | 908.248.AZP1 (2971) | T-1 Certified Amsoil Dealer "Race Tested, Enthusiast Approved!"

AZP Installs Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Why that would be AZPinstalls.com after all they are the ones that out here for FREE !!!! Thank you Max The cheapest thing out there, that is worth getting, are the Centric Premium rotors. They are a plain rotor with a painted top hat and run about 140 for the fronts plus shipping. Best thing about the Centrics is that you can track them a few times a year and, put 40k worth of street miles on them and still have some life left. Just PM us if you need anything and we can get it out to you. -Jake http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/91072632.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/133406601.jpg AIM: AZP Installs | E-mail: sales@azpinstalls.com | 725 Fairfield Ave | Kenilworth, NJ 07033 | 908.248.AZP1 (2971) | T-1 Certified Amsoil Dealer "Race Tested, Enthusiast Approved!"
