Rear 2 Pot STI brake setup, from a V4 Type R with 65 k miles.

Great condition and perfect working order.

Pretty much brand new Cosworth pads (suitable for fast road up to mild track work) and good quality OE discs which are again nearly new !!

190 delivered signed for. The disks and pads have seen a few hundred miles of road use only !

Hi Mate,

I could be interested in this set up. Just need to find out what is required to fit it to a P1?

The P1 has r160 fitment rear hubs I think, and these went on r180.

I believe it is a case of some adaptor brackets ?

Will double check that tomorrow for you.

You'll need brackets like these:

Those are Newage Blobeye WRX 2 pot calipers. The mounting points for the calipers are the same with R160 or R180 newage hubs and probably the P1 hubs. The earlier classic hubs I believe had different mounting points. You wouldn't normally fit the smaller WRX 2 pots to an R180 hub, it can be done but wouldn't make sense given the larger Brembo set up fits straight on.

Arch you mean by your comment that the above kit is for newage calipers?

Yes having read the link, that is what that part piehole suggested.

Mine definitely came off a V4 Type R which does have r180 rear hubs.

That's the kit I used to fit normal two pots and then at a later date Brembo calipers to my 1997 UK Turbo. I believe the P1 has the same standard 1 pot calipers as my car had from the factory.

This link shows that the brackets are needed for newage Brembos to fit the P1 so the same would apply to newage two pots as the share the same mounting points. I got this link from the P1 section of the Godspeed website and is the exact kit I have, including the big handbrake shoes.

No my point was firstly they are not STI calipers they are Newage WRX calipers. They will bolt straight onto Newage R160 pr R180 hubs but it wouldn't make sense to fit the smaller WRX calipers and discs when the brembo set up would fit straight on. I thought, but am not sure, that the P1 came with 2 pot rear calipers or was that the last of the classics?

You kinda muddying the water arch.

Only r180 classics aka type r/Ra came with 2 pot rears from v4+. Later used on newage wrx but on wrx sti type r/ra first.

To fit p1 they will need brackets and modified shoes or modified discs or newage wrx disc. If hubs were changed to newage wrx hubs brackets wouldnt be needed.

That's why I said I wasn't sure about the P1 don't see how that would cause confusion you have just repeated what I had said twice.

This was the bit that was muddying the waters.... they are used on the newage wrx, but the same calipers were also used on classic STI's first. Drakesnow has a classic, and in that sense they are genuinely from an STI.

The Subaru 2 pot rear calipers were fitted to the Type R and 22b along with a couple of others , and also the 2001 onwards WRX , they are all the same caliper , identical bar either being red or black.

To fit them on a 4 door classic , you will need the mounting bracket we designed , you will also need 290mm 2001 onwards WRX rear discs as the handbrake is the right size to fit on the classic 4 door , the discs that come with the above calipers for sale will have come off a 180 back end so has the larger handbrake , 190mm , so to fit the above you will need the thicker handbrake shoes , or buy some 2001 onwards WRX discs as they have a 170mm handbrake so fit straight on the 4 door classic

Partly correct, as I posted those calipers are Newage WRX calipers, only the Newage WRx's and mostly Blobeye and Hawkeye had the red calipers with the subaru sticker not the black or red calipers with the painted Subaru logo so the information is 100% correct.

This is only for the fronts , all the rear 2 pots have a Subaru sticker on the outer face , all the 2 pot rear calipers on classics are black , apart from the 22B which were red , the 2001 onwards wrx had black calipers up to around 2006 when they changed to red , and changed the front calipers to a subaru sticker not cast into the caliper body

Ian sorry but that is incorrect, my Blobeye WRX had the red rear calipers and the red fronts with the sticker and I have seen numerous others which are the same.
That said its not important, this is a good kit from a later Newage which is a good upgrade for a classic.

Arch i didnt bother reposting as other had it covered but theres no way you can say they are from newage as the classic ones are exactly the same!

Any glws for orginal poster as they are exactly as descibed by him.
