Buying a brake kit for 22 BRZ

[wintersheason]

Checking out a used brake kit from a Gen 1 FR-S for my 22 BRZ. will it fit my BRZ without cutting anything? Any pros here know?

Not a pro but the Gen 1 FR-S brake kit might not be a straight bolt on for the 22 BRZ since the newer model has a different aluminum steering knuckle that can mess with fitment afaik. Some kits need spacers or slight mods to clear everything.

I agree. For this, i suggest you speak with your trusted mechanic to guide you or at least give you ideas on what to get

Were you able to figure out if that FR-S brake setup would work for your BRZ after all? @wintersheason

How's this going? I agree with @I_am_Caleb, that Gen 1 FR-S brake kit won't directly bolt onto your 2022 BRZ without modifications. The mounting points and potentially even rotor offsets are different between the two generations. You'd be better off looking at aftermarket kits designed specifically for the 2022+ BRZ, like those from Wilwood, StopTech, or Brembo, if you're upgrading!
