4 pots off any age scoob will fit with the right discs 294mm. But make sure your wheels will clear the calipers.

Yip, same as me, I got the Black Diamond discs but they are the right size for the 4-Pots and my OZ Tourismo's clear them (just).

I recommend getting braided brake lines if you can spare the cash and dot 5.1 fluid - makes a big difference to the feel.

Do the early WRX's have ABS, I had to delete the ABS on my 4-Pots as the RA doesn't have it.

The pic is of the standard subaru 4 pots. They weren't fitted to the early cars. The ones above were off a 2001 bug eye.
Finalzero, how much did the black diamonds set you back? Im after some new discs/pads.

It was an option from the factory for the early JDM WRX (MY93-96 v.1/2, I think).

Mine doesn't have it, damn!
