I took the calipers and the discs from a MY01 and made some adapters to fit the calipers. The discs you can fit without modification. (only removing the heat shield)

I thought it is possible to fit the complete hubs also without modification.

I donīt have pics available for the brackets, but it isnīt very difficult! They are made of 10 mm thick aluminium and 4 bushes per side. The handbrake drums of the "normal" WRX MY01/02/03 are the same diameter as the MY99/00. The STiīs have bigger drums.

Thanks
