4 piston is more than adequate.

There are kits from PB brakes, and JustJap offers ATTKD ones. Other options are GTO brakes, Evo Brembos (whether with a adapter bracket or hubs and arms). Freaky Parts in the UK also offer Wilwood and another kit.

Does that say 'YOLO' on that caliper? Fitting if it did...

I'm just waiting for calipers that cover the entire rotor.

Just use brembo covers for the rest of it

But what if someone wants to be able to stamp on their brake pedal, and shatter the pads, rotor, hubs and driveshafts all at the same time??

Can the later models evo knuckles be bolted on to the FTO? Then Brembos would be a bolt on affair??

That's what Bennoz did, and I followed suit. He's using Evo 3 arms with a different balljoint to suit the Evo 5 hubs, but I went all Evo 5 (since the arms were available). Was expensive to refresh all the parts though.

Another solution is to use the caliper bracket MR307282 from Outlander, Airtrek and Magnum. This one lets you keep the twin pot front calipers with the same pads, and put a bigger brake disc - from 276mm to 294mm one, again from the Outlander, or the Evo 4.

So I ended up finding a bloke selling a gto brake conversion kit (discs, calipers, lines, pads abd brackets) and paid about $350 for the lot, gonna install them hopefully in the next few weeks
