Brembo rear adapters.

There should be no over hang of the pad area on top of the rotor, ever. Ive used countless different pads on rear Brembo's and never had it. Thats a design flaw in the KNS adapters.

Are you running pad shims? I personally found that pads without them wear differently to ones with shims as you'll notice the shim is only a half shim across the piston face allowing the pad to press on a slight angle to the rotor which gives more even wear.

Ive also seen this a lot on calipers Ive received to refurb.

I'm not running pad shims at the back. Only titanium racing shims in the front. Hawk pads normally have there own shims and I add the titanium shims to the front cause the rotors were really turns hot and I was afraid of getting any problem with oil seals.

I'm currently trying to complete the chases bracing buy getting any parts that I could get that fit to my car.

Are you running ventilated ti shims or the normal non slotted ti shims?

I needed a set for my Legacy and had to get a minimum of 10 sets made so I now have a few sets on hand if anyone is after a set.

Hi,

Will be fitting my Brembos (from TbSTI sedan post FL) to my 2008 (MY09) Spec B wagon - I assume these are the brackets I will need to mount the rears?

If so I'd love to buy a set if you have any left still

Thanks
Daniel
