    Brake lines will most likely be the same.
    But everything else is on the money.

    No worries.
    For reference,
    you can't do the JDM Front swap (brembos) and not do the rear as the car will not align correctly.
    If you do the front, you will need to do the rear.
    But if you do the easier route of wanting brembos, just use a S2000 Rotor and bobs your uncle.

    Na it is an Australian market dc5r so they are not brembo so is it still ok to just swap the front? Cause the think the rear of an Audm dc5r are the Same as the base models ones
