They are the same.
 
Brembo brakes will not fit the 2022+ Gen2 BRZ. The aluminum knuckle has a piece that protrudes that will block proper fitment.

If you want the brembo package you can:

1. Get brembos new “banana” calipers that are made to fit the BRZs aluminum knuckle

2. Cut off the aluminum piece that prodtrudes out, YouTubers have done it

3. Get an iron knuckle like the gr86
There's no cutting in the video above. Bolts right on. You do need shorter bolts for the front calipers because you can't use the extra bracket that was on the PP cars with iron knuckles. (See about 1:20 in) Perhaps that's where people are cutting if they want to use that additional bracket? Or is it more a matter of grinding down a bit of parting line flash/mismatch from casting?
