Hi i am looking at getting the standard subaru 4 pots on the front of my 94 wrx ra

Thanks, john

Dont need anything else really just as long as you got the pads and disks to go with the calipers.... disks are 295mm IIRC

You may want to get a later brake master cylinder or upgrade the rears at the same time, I just fitted the 4pots to mine without upgrading anything else but now its quite easy to lock up the rears. May want to also think about brake bias valve and maybe some goodrich braided brake lines too?

You need the discs that go with the calipers, your old ones are too small.
Plus I'd defo go for braided lines. I've not bothered with a bigger master cylinder, but I upgraded my rrears to STi Brembos when the fronts went over to Godspeed Brembos.

I've recently had the brake bias mod done and the car now feels solid and planted when I brake.
