Classic -> Newage hubs
Can some one confirm if (or if not if the case maybe) the rear hubs from a newage WRX (inc rear brakes) will fit directly onto a classic turbo 2000

Yeah its an R160. They look like they'll fit no bother, just want to be 100% sure

Yes - I swapped the hubs and brake calipers in complete with the handbrake cables to save the hassle of stripping all the handbrake shoes out.
Cables are the same though
