HGT should have the same hub as 16v(t) and 20v, 25mm wide; not the same as 20vt (the one with the 305x28 discs and Brembo callipers); there's some work to be done to get the Brembos up&running.
path 1 - adaptor plates (machined)
path 2 - 20vt hubs, steering rod end, maybe shafts(?)
once mounted, you'll have a good time trying to find decent alloys (other than stock 20vt 16" ones) that will clear the Brembos, without spacers and/or wobbly bolts.
I think there's greater benefit in fitting good discs(slotted?) and excellent pads (Pagid?) in stock HGT dimension (284mm), than changing the lot for Brembos...

I wanted to go down the same route with the brembo's but found it was going to be a real pain.
So instead I put drilled discs and reputable pads on and braided hoses and fully changed the brake fluid for dot5.1 and the difference was better by 10 fold.
So I would say just upgrade what you have not change them for the brembo's
