I think even 1st gen outlander have 2 piston front caliper.
Are you sure about that.

Stock brakes is pretty adequate, I found reviews scored shorter stopping distance than the Rav4 and fading was reported in repeated tests but did not affect stopping distance much.

I was looking around for replacement rotors for my outie and this is basically what i found

2009 Mitsubishi Outlander SE:

5 x 114.3 mm bolt pattern
294 or 302 mm disc diameter
12.6 or 13.15 mm bolt size
8.4 or 24 mm minimum thickness

Not sure about the disc diameter, bolt size and minimum thickness..

I would want the brembo brake adapter to fit brembos big brake kits...

What is the big break kit you are talking about? 4 pot, 6 pot? And what is the bolt hole centers where the caliper bolts onto the hub

And just so we are understanding correctly, I need the centre to centre measurement of the 2 bolts that hold the brake caliper to the hub wheel, not the brake pad bolts!!

why dont you just take a picture of what exactly you need.. and this weekend I can measure the bolts.. or maybe a third party manufacturer like power stop or EBC can give information on this? what measurements will fit?.. if not.. then take the pictures bc im unsure of what exactly you need...

I replaced OEM pads (the were done at ~50K miles) with Raybestos Professional grade ones. I thought the Raybestos Advanced grade would be an overkill.

Kept the OEM rotors so far.

I was browsing on summit racing site they have good choices on Outlander brake replacement parks, slotted rotors, drilled, EBC green pads.
Not big brake kit but I'll probably be shopping there when it comes time to replace the brakes and rotors.
