Does anyone know if Brembo Front Calipers off an FRS are the same size as the stock calipers on an Evo 9?

are you trying to swap them? the brackets are probably different regardless of if they're the same size caliper

Aren't the caliper and bracket kind of all in one, doesn't it just have one peace that bolts onto the spindle?

the bracket is what the caliper bolts to. usually it's part of the hub assembly

The FRS does not come with Brembo calipers. I have seen guys swap the STI calipers onto the FRS fronts but I believe the rears are different.

I thought you only needed Brembo's on a vehicle that was fast and needed to stop quickly...?

Agreed, never seen a toyobaru twin with OEM Brembos.
