Does the EVO VIII and EVO X front Brembo calipers are interchangeable?

Here's my plan; I got a 2000 Mazda Protege with front Mazdaspeed 6 brakes swap. I just heard that EVO VIII front brakes are direct bolt-on for Mazdaspeed 6 so my plan is to put EVO brakes on my protege. But it's easyer to find EVO X front brake kits with both calipers, brackets, pads, 2-piece disks....

But if EVO VIII and EVO X brakes are different, I'll focus on finding the right brakes for my car.

Thanks a lot for your help.

No, they're different sizes

Evo X has the same mounting location and pads, but the caliper itself is larger, and the rotors are larger. You won't be able to run 17 inch wheels with the X calipers on the car.

If Evo 8 brakes bolt on front Evo X will also. You simply need a larger rotor for the Evo X caliper as it has taller mount lugs because the Evo X has larger brakes than the 8 and 9.

Rear calipers are different, and do not interchange..
