Will this SH5 big brake kit clear my wheels?

Clearance depends on wheel design, not just diameter. This kit runs 326mm x 30mm rotors and the Endless M4 caliper is sized for wheels from 17 inches. Endless publishes wheel clearance data for its kits; contact Bulletproof Automotive with your wheel specs before ordering and we will confirm fitment.

What is included in the Endless 1913178 kit?

The kit includes two Endless M4 calipers, a brake pad set, two caliper mounting brackets, two 326mm x 30mm one-piece rotors, and two brake lines. It is a complete front-axle system for the SH5 Subaru Forester (Turbo) *PCD100 under one part number.

Do I need to upgrade the rear brakes at the same time?

No. The Endless M4 front kit installs with the factory rear brakes retained. The front axle carries most of the braking load, so a front system is the standard first upgrade and works as a standalone improvement.

What pad compounds work with the Endless M4 calipers?

The Endless M4 runs 15mm-thick pads in the RCP093 shapes. Endless supports its SSM, TR, MX72, MX72 Plus compounds in this caliper, so the same sh5 big brake kit covers street driving through track use on a pad change.

Is this kit a direct bolt-on?

Yes. Part number 1913178 ships with mounting brackets and brake lines for the 2008-2012 Subaru Forester (Turbo) *PCD100 front axle, so the kit bolts on without fabrication. Bed the pads in dry conditions after installation to reach full performance.

Part number 1913178 is sold as one complete front brake kit covering both front corners: calipers, rotors, pads, brackets, and lines, priced and shipped as a single system.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
