Nah, maybe 160ATW. It's only a Gen2 GT engine so I cant push the tune too hard. Al thought it might see 180ATW.
I do have a closed deck block I want to start working on soon however, with an increase in capacity.

I thought I'd post up some pictures of the quality of the Brembo's that I recieved from Import Monster.
They have only probably been used from the factory to the holding yard then to the dealer at which point they were removed. Brand f**king new.

I love the Import Monster.
The Brembo's are lighter than the 4 pot WRX callipers as well, which I couldn't believe until I weighed them.
4 pots with 10% pad remaining weighed 5.4kg. The Goldy's weighed 4.95kg with 100% new pads.

Farking score Frank! With the Brembo's, is the pad surface larger? Are the pistons larger? In regard to the 4pots.

Are the pistons larger?

In regard to the 4pots.

Yep, I put the 4 pot and Brembo pads together and there is quite a difference although not huge. I'll post up some comparison pics later.
Pistons are a little larger. The exact dimensions are in that Brakes thread, in that x-cell file I provided.
However the 2 pot rears have larger pistons than the Brembo rears.
What I can't get over is the fact the Brembo's are actually physically lighter.
Dog bones need a small mod to fit over the rear callipers. I was aware of this as this issue has been discussed on a few forums so it's not a big deal. They are alloy so it will be easy to file a little away.
