hi i have a x reg bugeye wrx just got a full set of 4 pots the car has 2 pot front single rear,i believe this is a straight swap a si have the pads and disc's aswell for the four pots and hoses if required all removed from a 04 blob,
do i have to uprate the master cylinder or should it be suffiecent? also when bleeding is it standard bleeding procedure or is it crack the nipple and the pump runs to bleed system like the fords steve

 

the 2pot to 2pot front swap is very straight forard as long as you have all of the 4pot components..........simple bolt-on

Can't see much point in a 2 pot to 2 pot conversion

Alyn means a 2 pot to 4 pot !

You need the discs , pads and 4 pot calipers and they fit straight on , if you have the 1 pot rear calipers , you would need the 2 pot rears , discs pads and fitting kit we make to fit , again , they will bolt straight on then

Cheers Ian

 

2pot to 2pot could catch on, would make most of our jobs very easy.............

 

So are you saying the two pot rears will they bolt straight on to the rear hubs or not steve

 

Hi
If you have the 266mm discs and one pot calipers fitted on the rear of your car , then you need one of these fitting kits and then the 290mm discs and rear 2 pot calipers will bolt straight on.

many thanks i do have the single pots and want to put the two pots on i have the discs for the two pots already,ill remove them and have a look its a bugeye not a classicso ill check and see if they fit or not i thought the bugs should come with the two pots rear and four pot fronts!!steve

 

They did.

Do the fronts have SUBARU embossed on them?

 

No some imports came with 2 pot fronts and 1 pot rears , all USA wrx's do as well , i will say you need the fitting kit , I sell a lot of these in America

 

many thanks for your help im using the old dears computer as my internet down as soon as im ready i will purchase a set from you thanks again steve

 

I would change the master cylinder too.

 

why !!

 

Because of the increased volume of brake fluid needed to fill the numerous pistons is greater... thus your pedal may sink towards the floor.

HTH

dunx

 

The m/c is always a grey area,some swear by it,others say no difference noticed.
then theres if you do do the change,what model of car will fit, so if you do a 95 wrx with 4 pots at front, 2 pots at rear,,what m/c are you supposed to buy which is suitable/fits to the classic etc ? then,will the current lines in the engine bay fit from the old places to the new m/c outlets ?

all good fun LOL

 

Dunx: mine has gone from 2 pot front, single pot rear, to 4-pot Brembo front, two pot Brembo rear and on the same m/c, with no problems. The brakes are brilliant.

 

See ! LOL

i reckon we all differ in leg strength LOL

 

my pedal feels better now than it ever did i say it still sends the same amount of pressure to the brakes but the volume dont make any difference it just spreads the load more evenly over the discs being four pots witch increases the braking effeicency steve
