Subaru STI Brembo Front Brake Pad Fitting Kit

The Brembo 4-Pot front caliper is an iconic piece of Subaru performance, but its effectiveness depends on the health of the hardware that holds the pads in place. Over time, the tension springs can lose their "memory," and the sliding pins can develop micro-corrosion, leading to pad "drag," uneven wear, or a distracting metallic clunk.

The Roo Racing Brembo Hardware Restoration Kit is the professional choice for maintaining the precision and silence of your STI's braking system.

Subaru STI Brembo Front Brake Pad Fitting Kit

High-Tensile Restoration Hardware for GD, GV, and VA Series STI.

When running high-performance pads in your Brembos, old, fatigued hardware becomes a weak link. Reusing rounded pins or weakened springs doesn't just cause noise; it can lead to pad taper and reduced braking efficiency.

Our Quality Aftermarket Fitting Kit is engineered to meet the exacting tolerances of the factory gold and black calipers. Whether refreshing a daily driver or prepping for a track day, this kit ensures your pads stay perfectly aligned and retract smoothly, maintaining that crisp, high-end pedal feel.

Why This Kit is Essential for Brembo Owners:

• Eliminate Pad "Click": The dual Pad Tension Cross Springs are manufactured from high-grade spring steel to maintain constant anti-rattle pressure, ensuring a silent and professional-feeling setup.

• Frictionless Pad Movement: Includes four Precision-Ground Retaining Pins. A smooth pin surface is critical for allowing pads to slide evenly as they wear, preventing the "binding" that causes excessive heat.

• Redundant Safety: Featuring four R-Clip Retaining Pins to provide a mechanical lock on the main pins. In the high-vibration environment of a 4-Pot Brembo, this is your ultimate fail-safe.

• Show-Room Finish: Replace rusted, brown pins with fresh hardware to restore the premium look of your calipers through the wheels.

The Hardware Manifest:

• (2) Pad Tension Cross Springs: High-memory spring steel for anti-rattle performance.

• (4) Pad Retaining Pins: Polished high-tensile shafts for smooth pad travel.

• (4) Pad Pin R-Clips: Heavy-duty locking clips for maximum security.

🛡️ The Roo Racing Service Tip

Brembo pins are notorious for seizing into the aluminum caliper body. When installing this kit, apply a tiny amount of nickel-based anti-seize to the tips of the pins where they seat into the caliper. This ensures that the next time you swap pads, the pins will slide out with a simple tap rather than a hammer and punch.
