With all the talk about how the StopTech front kit is so well designed to match the WRX rears, I would be surprised if Dean added the $2300 rear StopTech kit. Especially since, the StopTeck front kit *really* does work well with stock rear brakes.

Forgot about that
Even if Dean bought StopTech rears though, we know he'd never pay $2300, lol.

Yes, my car was at Sids. I'm having weird brake ware in the rear. And due to a sequence of stolen tools, and useless tool truck guys, it is not fixed. Why was parting out a car? I may need a replacement rear bias gizmo...
