Straight swap ,bleed nipples at the top.
Make sure your wheels fit over them as well.

If you are changing the rear brakes to 2 pots (embossed with SUBARU like the 4 pots) then they need brackets to fit.
Takes about a couple of hours to do plus however much the calipers,discs,pads,fluid and Goodridge hosing cost (the hosing isn't neccessary but ,imo, worthwhile)

dave246

think ill just do the fronts for now cheers carnt find any rear atm anyway

Nice easy mod this, but as above, check your wheels clear them. I had to fit 5mm spacers to clear them on mine.

dave246

2 pots use 277mm discs, 4 pots use 294mm, so you will need bigger discs.

dave246

thought 4 pots was just a straight swap didnt no i needed a bigger disc

You'll need callipers, discs and pads for a direct swap.
