The seller of a MY2000 WR Sport that I am looking at says that it has a brake upgrade.

When questioned (expecting Alcons) he said that it has 4 Pots rather than sliding callipers??

I thought all UK Turbos had 4 Pots from MY99??

I had a MY99 UK turbo (from new) - it had 4 pots as std. I think it was '99 that UK cars came with them as std. Never, ever heard of a WR coming without them.

correct, MY99/00.

Sounds like a blagger to me. Is it the WR Sport thats been on ebay for about 3 months and posted on here numerous times? Blue with WR addons for a rediculous asking price?

Interesting when you view his purchase history.
-Closed deck block
-Coilovers
-Fuel rail
-Injectors

On the face of it it looks like a decent car with low miles. buy it now prices seems a little high i would have thought 3250-3500 would be about right

The low miles and originality is what I'm interested in. Not looking for one to mod or one that has been modified. Very rare to find there days.

I had a new MY00 and from what I can remember Prodrive did an uprated disc and pad kit. Just done a quick search :-

"Prodrive disc upgrade - Subaru part no SACC2470 and pad upgrade (Ferrodo DS2000) Subaru part no SACC2471. £500 fitted inc VAT"

Even if it had the upgrade the original pads and discs will have since been replaced (I hope!)

The seller just said that the upgrade was that it had 4 Pots.

As above, the MY99's were the first to have the 4 pots so in reality it late 98 S reg cars that saw them first

My R reg 97 just missed out on them

My 1998 S turbo2000 wagon had the 4 pot calipers

Prob an aftermarket update by a previous owner, well worth adding the 4 pots to any scoob as the 2 pots suffer once pushed... As i found out in 2004 on a scoooby outing in derbyshire in a 94 wrx, lol

My MY99 S-plate wagon was the first reg. of wagon to get the 4 pots as standard, I know that much. Facelifted front end on mine.

Brun

Like I said - 4 pots appeared in the back end of '98!

OP
The Alcons were also 4 pots and were a favoured option on the WR versions so worth determining if it has them. They have PRODRIVE rather than SUBARU on them.
Awesome set of brakes. Proper eye candy imo.

My 2 pot calipers are absolute crap, coming from a lightweight Saxo VTS with Brembo four pots on the front and 285mm vented discs the scoob feels like it takes forever to slow down. If I were to fit subaru four pots to mine would I need to fit a bigger master cylinder?
