Default 4-POT CALIPERS ON VER.2 STI RA???

Hi are the 4pot calipers and discs that are fitted to the later cars a direct replacement for the old legacy type fitted as standard? I have heard that the hubs are different and is not a straight swop, also will the goodridge lines off the two pots fit the four pots?
are the P1 four pots the same?

cheers

The 4 pots should bolt straight on but you will need the disk and pads from the same kit and 16" wheels to fit over them. Note some Subaru wheels do not fot over!!

The hoses will swap too

And all the 4 pots on the classics and new age WRX's are the same design.

Thanks for that, Ive just moved over from the rear wheel drive ford camp in the rallying, so im waiting for the scoob to arrive on the boat in southampton, so doing some research before the big spend on bits!!!!!!!!!!
I need to run 15" wheels with the four pots but a phone call to speedline and compomotive has confirmed that they do a wheel which fits over these brakes as they run in group N on gravel with that setup.
Next on the list is ditch the cat's, Headers, up + down pipes , replacement filter for airbox (u cant run a induction kit!!!!!) fuel pressure regulator and possibly GEMS or MOTECH ecu if the std ecu map is way off with our crap fuel octane, Oh and a paddle clutch kit and six wheels!!!!!!!!!
thanks mark

The 4 pot disks are 294mm plus a bit for the caliper. I haven't hurd of any 15" wheels fitting but I have been known to be wrong before (was a long time ago)

They make them because the group N rally cars runs 15" in gravel trim.

I know they won't fit under the std wheels, just presumed they were too big
