Hi there,

Can any body tell me what brakes I should have on my car...?

I have the 2 pots ala MY98 brakes, where as the UK MY99 has 4 pots.

I also don't have any brake ducting under the front bumper. Is this normal do you think.


Whats the deal with this one ??

I think you'll find that it's only the STI's that have four pots, the standard WRX still had the 2 pots, never could understand why though!!!

Thanks lads,

Makes me feel better about the car that. I also have the small rear spoiler which I also think is right.

Time for upgrade now.
