in was reading this forum

http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/faq-subaru-legacy-2-5i-115322.html.

and it says how the brakes (calliper, rotor etc) are not a direct

 

replacement. What i was wondering was what needs to be done. The bolt

 

patterns are the same correct? so is it a matter of just buying bigger

 

rotors and new calipers. I was looking at a upgrading to a stop tech brake

 

kit

 

http://www.importimageracing.com/stoptech-slotted-rotors-f-r-for-05-legacy-gt.html. All i have to do is but new rotors and callipers correct?

 

i have an 06 2.5i with the stock 17" rim.

If you want to use those StopTech rotors made for the LGT, you will need:

 

- LGT calipers

- LGT caliper brackets (usually attached to the calipers)

- LGT brake lines (also usually attached)

- LGT specific brake pads

 

If you hear grinding or scraping after the installation, it's most likely the dust shield scraping against the rotor(s) since the rotors are larger, especially the fronts. Use some pliers to bend the dust shields back.
