STI or EVO Brembo's on Coupe

Before Every on says search, i Tried already. lol. Any way, i found a couple pairs of Brembo calipers (Front and Rear) for an Evo, and a few for an STI. Would Any one happen to know if these Calipers wil fit? Now, I know that I would have to get the 03/04 Brembo G35 Brackets, and stock or upgraded rotors as well. Any Input would be appreciated. Oh, sorry and It would be for an 04 - 5AT - Coupe.

Compared to the Brembo brakes on a G35, the Evo and Sti have different pads, rotor sizes, and piston sizes from the G35 Brembos. Even if you got it to fit, it wouldn't operate properly.

Brakes are just like suspension in that they are very car specific.

Stoptech, thanks for your input. I appreciate that. I really didnt know that there were different piston sizes.

Thanks for your input every one. I guess I'll have to find a pair of used OEM Brembos from a G35 then.

No problem!

Yeah, a lot of people don't realize it, but the Brembo OE systems are very different. The only thing that is really shared between all the cars is the rear pad shape and the logo on the caliper.
