Product details
The black Superlite 6R package combines six-piston calipers with 13.06-inch GT slotted rotors for the specified Subaru front disc-spindle applications. Separate aluminum hats and application-specific lines accompany the conversion hardware. Coverage extends beyond WRX to the individual Impreza, Legacy, Outback and Forester entries, with different rear-brake and production-split requirements across those vehicles. Wilwood Engineering was founded by Bill Wood in 1977 and is based in Camarillo, California. The company designs and manufactures disc brake systems and components, including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings, and brake lines for motorsport, street-performance, and specialized applications.

Verify the original front hub registration and upright before assembly. Set rotor and caliper position according to the installation procedure, and compare the actual wheel with the 17-inch minimum clearance template. Route hoses through steering travel and confirm the completed brake system remains correctly balanced.
