Default front brake swap

old 1999 rs...so any calipers up to 2007(?) will straight bolt on... the rotors if theyre going on an old 2.5rs with a 5x100 pattern in a direct bolt on fashion would be 2004 or before... but is the tone ring for the abs circuit the same? just taking a shot some bored person is on here... have researched and cannot find a definitive answer, will oull the wheels soon. doing diff fluid tonight and oil on another subie, hoping someone knows

The RS was never sold in the UK, so you may have more luck on the US forums.

US spec or not then the 5x100 front hubs all basically swap around brake wise in terms of fitment as long as you use the matching disc & caliper......
depending on wheels you may have to look at different set-ups due to clearance differences on the larger caliper sets

I would say there the same as most other parts are, rear calipers will need mounting bracket though if wanting to fit those aswell.
