Not only the better brake performance, but the weight savings too ! Win win 🏁

[@MrBencher446]

Great video Kevin thanks for showing it. 👍🏻

[@kcspeed9980]

I know the rear breaks don’t do nearly as much work as the fronts but I wish the bbk from stoptech could come with fronts and rears. The rear entry calipers that brembo use are awesome for quick pad changes.

[@KevinVo]

Although it would be nice to have both front and rears, it's just not cost effective as it would drive the costs up significantly.

[@kcspeed9980]

@@KevinVo I get that, I’ve actually seen guys running the rear brembos from the performance pack with the stoptech fronts, I don’t know if the had a performance pack car and upgraded the fronts or just did the rears as well. Great video series, I have a 2020 wrx performance pack that I track and autocross regularly but I’m probably upgrading to a brz/frs/86 track car in the future.

[@Dan_AYP]

Cool video man, I've been looking at the sti caliper upgrade and mtec floating disc set for my 86 when I get one

[@KevinVo]

That'll be a nice upgrade!

[@c.j.cameron1820]

Gotta give us a review of how you like them.

[@KevinVo]

Absolutely, I'll let you know!

[@PeterGranberg511]

I dont know how or why I haven't already been subscribed... But subbed now lol.

[@KevinVo]

Dude same wth 😅

[@TripSkyWalker]

Such a nice setup. So what track are you taking them too?

[@KevinVo]

Had them on for Road America a couple weeks ago!

[@TripSkyWalker]

You really need them for such a fast track

[@KevinVo]

Yeah it's definitely a track you abuse brakes at.

[@Rontheanchorman]

Hey Kevin, the old brz/86 knuckles are different size to the old car so the caliper brackets from the previous gen brake kits don't fit. I'm assuming that the brackets in this kit have been modified to fit the new model ? They seemed to fit ok

[@ericmichel3857]

Pro tip for next time. Get a two by four or some sort of stick, open up one of the break bleeder's and then press the brake pedal to the floor and hold it there by wedging it in place to the seat. Now you can remove the brake lines all around and no fluid will leak out of the lines. You can take your time and virtually no mess. Oh an that car looks awesome in Silver, that would be my choice as well.

[@nesertema4583]

+ you can bleed them that way too, without the need of a buddy/wife, etc. 🙂

[@kw3674]

Would you recommend doing something like a stop tech kit? Or going with a swap for the brembos that came in the TRD special edition models? Would the stop techs be lighter than the oem brembos?

[@K_Mag]

Kevin my sister just got a 2014 STi it's so loud which she likes. Do you recommend any mods it has a few mods already. I think intake and it would be complete also a front splitter would complete the look

[@KevinVo]

What is your sister planning on doing with the car? Is it just going to be a fun daily driver? If it's too loud, you can look into getting and exhaust with bigger mufflers or a resonator. How about wheels and suspension?

[@K_Mag]

@@KevinVo she's planning to daily, it but that kinda stuff is already done she's got the Cobb access port around 300 or more hp full turbo back exhaust uel headers (she like it realy loud)she already has got a bov, tires and coilovers just to name a few . Any ideas other then a intake? Or is it already passing the full bolt on stage?. Thanks

[@K_Mag]

@@KevinVo for the rims from the previous owner she has advan rzf2 rims and the tyres are some Yokohama's she also got a set of rims for if she decides to sell the advan's

[@K_Mag]

She's also fixing up the interior and changing the infotainment and trim pieces that are not already carbon fibre. It's got a fairly good amount of carbon fibre in it (the car)

[@KevinVo]

Sounds like she's good on engine modifications. Does she have a lip kit and such? How about lighting modifications?

[@hamadalsahhaf3767]

the break kit its fit on new GR86 ?

[@pmor8]

How many sets of pads do you usually go through before changing the rotors?

[@KevinVo]

It really depends on a few different factors. If you're just daily driving a car with street pads, you can go through a couple sets before having to change the rotors. On the other hand, if you're running a really aggressive track pad, that's going to eat through the rotor quicker than a stock pad would.

[@pmor8]

@@KevinVo gotcha! In the position where my STi has to wear both hats. Anything you look for with the rotors to see if they need to go or not?

[@pmor8]

@@KevinVo Gotcha thanks!

[@deanblackadder2918]

Will it fit gen two

[@ramonnicolo]

What’s pads are you running for the rear?

[@KevinVo]

Still have Hawk HP+ pads in the rear for now.

[@kgthegreatone943]

What brake fluid do you use?

[@KevinVo]

I use ATE TYPE 200 brake fluid.

[@banytv7887]

I Want to aks does this brake setup go with a 15 inch weld on the gt86?

[@KevinVo]

These will probably not work with 15inch wheels as I don't think it would clear the barrel of the wheel.

[@banytv7887]

@@KevinVo do you have some tips wich would fit?
