You'll need bigger disks as 2 pots use 277mm and 4 pot use 294mm

I thought a bracket was needed to hold the calipers higher on early WRX's like here...

The answer is in the heading there , that kit is a 335mm one , the standard discs are 294mm , so the 294mm discs and subaru 4 pot calipers will bolt onto all model Impreza's up to 2008

If you're doing the swap may be worth reconditioning them.

I went the whole way and replaced the actual pistons with stainless steel ones from Godspeed
