Are you sure the applied model code is right ? The "L" should actually be a number..

G=Impreza
C=Saloon
8= 2.0l Turbo
F= Sept 1998 - Aug 1999
L=????, Should be a 2(2 door) or 4(4 door) or (5 5door wagon)
8=WRX
D= Speed manual

Thats all i can decipher from it, Are you looking for front or rear rotors as the fronts would be a straight swap for the same size disc. Just measure them, I think they will be either 295mm(4 Pot calliper) or 277mm sliding caliper and 266mm for the rears(I think)
