Classic 4pot front calipers on 2001 WRX
As above, am I right thinking this would fit? Sorry if this had been disusawd a million times before but anyway.
Found out last weekend my front calipers are completely rusted to bits. Never seen brake calipers this bad so they need replacing. Its not just surfacerust, the material on the inner side of the caliper closest to the hub is almost completely gone. It's a miracle they're not leaking like mad. So I had a chat with Kent Subaru spares and they have a pair for me but they're from a classic. To me the classic and new age calipers look identical but are they actually identical? Subaru spares think they should but weren't 100% sure so figured I would ask the experts here before I order them.
Thanks for reading and/or replying.

Dont forget that theyre 15 years old, at least, so they might need refurbing. Got the same problem myself, but im getting some refurbed ones from a supplier on here
