Has anybody ever fitted MY00 4-pot brakes to a MY93 WRX and used braided brake hoses to connect them. So far ive been told a one-off brake line might have to be made up specifically for the job. Will the standard goodridge kit for the MY00 impreza do, or are the fixings different at the brake line end? or is the calliper end different between 2-pot and 4-pot?
Thanks for any help

I recently changed from 2 pots to 4 pots on my my98.The 4 pots came with the original rubber hoses .The brake line end was the same but the caliper end was slightly different. On the 4 pots the hose was about 1/2 inch shorter and had a 30 degree crank on the end where it connects to the caliper it also had a small lug that located in a small hole on the caliper.
I did try the 2 pot hose with the 4 pot and it fitted perfectly but did not have the locating lug. I don't now if the goodridge hoses would have this lug so you might be able to get away with the standard hoses if not I'd be very surprised if the my 00 goodridge hoses did not fit.

Thanks Andy,
Ive ordered a set from graham goode, they should arrive next week hopefully.
How did the brake change go? easy? im looking at doing it myself when the hoses arrive, any tips? or is it straightforward?
Thanks
