Depends if they are 'Subaru Brembo' or aftermarket Brembo.
The Subaru Brembos will work fine, but other Brembos (same size etc etc) will have a different brake line fitment.

Yes the hoses are the same , as mentioned , get the bolts with the brembo's as they are a different thread to the subaru calipers
Cheers Ian

Don't go for "cheapest"!
Go for EBC Bluestuff pads, which are superb, plus std or whatever discs Ian suggests. You'll appreciate it!
