Default v2 sti type ra rear brake upgrade

I have a v2 sti type ra, i want to upgrade the rear brakes to 2 pot calipers, what is the easiest way to do this? it uses the r160 setup. i first thought to swap the hubs to v4 type r ones but this uses the r180 setup, can i swap the rear diff, shafts and hubs from a type r using a 4.444 diff? cheers

if you get some 2 pot rear calipers , you need the 2001 onwards WRX rear discs , pads , and the fitting kit we do

They will bolt straight on to your existing rear hubs.
We offer discs and pads as well

Cheers Ian
