Hello M8

MY99 calipers are 4-pots (4 pistons in the caliper, 2 on each side).

MY98 calipers are 2-pots (2 pistons in the caliper, 1 on each side).

If you can look inside the caliper you should be able to see the pistons.

I aint an expert but believe the above to be true, dont think pads for 2-pots would fit a 4-pot caliper anyway. Normally the Subaru 4-pot calipers have Subaru written on them in white.

Hope this helps, I'm sure someone else will confirm, some good techies on this forum.

Cheers
