Default 4 pot calipers on WRX

I have recently bought some 4 pot calipers off EBAY. I am going to fit them to my '95 WRX which has seized single pot calipers. Do I need to buy bigger disks and do I need any adapter plates to mount them?

Thanks.

You'll definately need the larger 294mm discs. I'm not sure about adaptor plates though.

Yep, you'll need the disc, but nothing else. They will just bolt on. Actually you might need the caliper bolts.

I bought the whole lot off ebay a couple of months ago...the calipers will fit the original mounts but you will need the bigger disks..as the rig says, they are regularly available on ebay for not alot of money

Oh and you'll not believe the difference in stopping power
