Brake Calipers

I was wondering if the brake calipers on the 04 Subaru STI is interchangeable with the 04 Evo VIII? The finish on the Subies seem to last better.

Negative.

And the Subaru one turns brown too anyway after a good amount of track time.

They're not compatible. You're better off just painting it.
