Question anyone know the mount centre measurement on impreza brake calipers

after the measurement for the mounting brackets for the calipers - i'm being lazy as i could get under the car and measure it but thought i'd ask here first any chance it's 5.25" (133.4mm)?

ok, quick re-think, can you get adapter brackets to fit the 133.4mm fixings?

depends on the offsets of the 4 holes , if you try the caliper in place with what you are trying to do , and you can see the 4 holes then a bracket can be made , if you cant see the holes then it wont fit

any idea of the mount centres of the mounting bracket to hub? just another thought, sounds like i might need a new mounting bracket with the correct caliper fixings

there's the mounting bracket which you bolt the caliper onto and then the bracket bolts onto the hub - i need the hub to bracket mount centre measurement

Subaru brakes bolt directly to the hub.... or mine do. There is no bracket that bolts to the hub (unles you have one of Ian's 335mm kits for the subaru 4 pots).

I'm a little confused on what dimension you want?

Where the caliper carrier , or the lugs on the 4 pots bolt onto the hub , the spacing is 154mm

On the 2 pot calipers , the measurement from the caliper body to caliper carruer is 164mm

Ahh... if your looking at the 2 pots as Ian says i can see why you think they all use a caliper braket.
