Why don't you look into why rally cars use the parts they have before throwing smaller brakes and a light bar onto your lowered evo.
This has nothing to do with my car. I was just posting this to show people who might want to run smaller rim size for slicks and a small brake kit is still $1000-$1500 and to do it this way is less the $400.:spin:

Thanks for posting this, I have always liked the idea of a smaller brake kit for my car if I make it a track car in the future.

Yeah, this is solid for those who want to run slicks. Beats the alternatives like really expensive smaller brakes or running Motorcycle drag tires on 17" rims that clear.

This thread just came in good use, I have a buddy who is making a evo 8 a rally car and wants smaller brakes.

We don't drive Subarus, we don't downgrade brakes to fit small wheels because we think we own rally cars. You want to do this go buy an STI, don't do it to a street driven Evo.

I knew I didn't imagine this thread. Thanks. This brake swap with stock fd wheels = cheap drag setup.
