brake question

[joeybisson]

brembos off an 05 sti? Would it fit on a mazdaspeed3? Is there a way to make it fit?

why? what are you trying to achieve...brake envy or functionality? you are not going to get to much feedback on this thread. the brakes on this car are not a real weak point where you can upgrade and gain a significant performance advantage. the ms3's brake setup can be built upon to match or exceed aftermarket performance. i have brembo calipers on my track only car and i daily drive a 2008 ms3. to do an open track day i changed my stock pads to hawk hps, installed stoptech slotted rotors, castrol synthetic brake fluids, and goodridge steel lines and this car stops better than most sports cars i have driven.

yup, make sure you buy all the parts before you look any further into it though!






no i'm kidding. Would take a new custom bracket. But like melan47 said why?

the braking on a ms3 is very good. Change the pads, rotors, fluid. If you can lock up your brakes you dont need new ones. And 99% of people with a speed 3 will never see enough track time to require a brake upgrade.
