Message This weekend a friend of mine was rebuilding a set of 04+ Subaru Impreza calipers that he bought (the 4POT front, 2POT rear ones... I think they came from the factory painted red). I noticed that the label on the parts he had said "NISSAN". He said that the subaru community has been using Z32 rebuild kits for these for years because they are cheaper than what subaru charges. So apparently the piston sizes are the same, dust seals, etc.


Anyone have more info on this? This is the first I heard of this, but I went on NASIOC (subaru forum) and there's plenty of info about it.


Also, apparently they use the same pads too.
