Brembo Big Brake Kits for Subaru BRZ 1st Gen (2013-2020)

Every Brembo big brake kit we offer for the first-generation Subaru BRZ, sold in the US for 2013-2020, is on this page: front and rear, from budget-friendly 1-piece disc kits up to GT-S, GT-R and PISTA race systems. The BRZ is light and balanced, and owners take it to autocross and track days where the factory brakes fade quickly. A Brembo system replaces the calipers and discs at the axle you choose with a matched caliper, disc and pad package.

Choosing Your Kit

• Kit: front kits come first, then rear, and each name gives the system, piston count and disc size. The front range starts with two GT 4-piston kits on 326x30mm 1-piece discs, listed as the H and S caliper families from Brembo's catalog. Next are GT 4-piston kits on 332x32mm or 345x28mm 2-piece discs, a GT 6-piston kit on 355x32mm discs, and a PISTA 6-piston race kit. At the rear you can choose a GT 2-piston kit on a 316x20mm 1-piece disc, a GT 4-piston kit on a 345x28mm disc, or a PISTA 4-piston kit.
• Finish: the 1-piece H caliper kit, the 4-piston 332x32mm kit and the rear 2-piston kit come in black, red or silver. The 1-piece S caliper kit comes in black, red, yellow or fluorescent yellow. The 4-piston 345x28mm front kit, the 6-piston front kit and the 4-piston rear kit add yellow, GT-S (black hard-anodized) and GT-R (billet-machined and nickel-plated). PISTA kits come in one standard finish. Finishes a kit does not offer cannot be selected for that kit.
• Disc Type: the 1-piece and 332x32mm kits come with Drilled or Type 1 Slotted discs. The 345x28mm GT kits add Type 3 Slotted, and the 6-piston GT kit comes Drilled or Type 3 Slotted. PISTA kits offer Type 3, Type 3L and Type 5 Slotted discs for track and race use.

FAQ

What is the cheapest Brembo upgrade for my BRZ?
The 1-piece disc kits: the front 4-piston kits on 326x30mm discs and the rear 2-piston kit on a 316x20mm disc. They keep the factory wheel options open and suit street and autocross use.

GT, GT-S, GT-R or PISTA?
GT is the cast caliper in a painted finish. GT-S is the black hard-anodized version and GT-R is billet-machined and nickel-plated. PISTA is Brembo's race system with forged calipers, disc springs and a centering ring.

Does this fit the 2022+ BRZ?
No. This page covers the first-generation BRZ (2013-2020). The second-generation car has its own Brembo fitment.

Fitment Notes

All kits on this page are listed by Brembo for the BRZ (ZC6). Brembo's list starts at 2012; the BRZ went on sale in the US as a 2013 model. The PISTA rear kit is listed with parking-brake provision. Where a rear system keeps a drum-in-hat parking brake inside the aluminum bell, Brembo rates it for parking and emergency use only. The GT-R caliper needs different wheel clearance from the GT caliper. Brembo GT systems are designed for cars at original ride height. Many PISTA installs need the factory dust shield modified or removed.

Each kit fits the vehicles listed below. Confirm wheel clearance before ordering.
