rkrenicki's 2010 SH9 Forester X Limited - 2024-03-02 Brakes Part One!

[rkrenicki]

Front brakes are finally in! I have a different set of rears on hand, but I need different hoses to actually install them.


These things are massive. The old rotors were no slouches either, they were found on many of the 2000s WRXes, including the 4-pots.


They look pretty good, even with my corroded winter wheels.

Nicely done. Those Power Stop calipers look like the same ones, well powdercoated and whatnot, that I put on my Miata.

Indeed, that is why I bought them, not because they were red, but because they seemed to have a high quality powder coat. I am pretty bummed that the PowerStop rears both had malformed threads, but at least I have some other coated calipers that will do the job.
