not really, there is a way of using Hatch STi Brembo calipers and the 290mm discs but not ideal IMO

Check out my DIY thread. It shows what bracket dimensions to change and material removal from the mounting plate.
I've been running mine since 2006.

It retains the 170mm drum and the pads just need a trim :http://www.southeastscoobies.co.uk/v...hread.php?t=21
