Can you swop everything over from an impreza? Hubs discs and calipers? It might be cheap as everyone as always upgrading brakes and it would be easier to find parts such as brake pads.
It sounds like a cool project you have.

Brat brakes are completely different to imps .... the handbrakes even on the front wheels.

best bet would be to find an old xt turbo and lift the hole rear disc conversion.

otherwise get on mvbrumbybrat.co.uk and find a guy called giles .... he knows all and is a really helpful fella so will undoubtably point you in the right direction.

Ive not had much to do with the rear drums as mine came with rear disc conversion already. Got another one to use round the land arriving in the next few days.
