Hey, i have an 05 Impreza RS 2.5L, basically, my only choice is to mod my current car as owning a wrx isnt legal at my age where i live, my next step is brakes, i was wondering if a big brake kit for an 05 wrx would fit on my car with any modification, or if they just wouldnt fit at all.

Fronts will bolt on rears probably wont as the wrx has a different width mount for the 2 pot calipers. Can get adaptors called dog bones to make them fit

Thanks man, one more question about the backing plates, obviously new discs wont fit over the backing plate so would i just need to bend it out?

I'm running wrx size front backing plates with brembo calipers and they clear fine.
