Default help needed

just about to do a brembo upgrade on my bug eye impreza, so i test fitted one front and one rear to see if there were any problems with clearences on my wheels etc... everything was fine with the front but the rear i need some help with. the problem is with the handbrake shoe assembly, as the housing on the new brembo discs is about 20mm bigger in diameter than the standard wrx disc, will the shoes adjust out that far or is there something else i need to do?????

unless you fancy changing the rear hubs, shafts, diff, etc. to the R180 type instead of your smaller R160 then this isn't going to work...............

the small diff has a h/brake drum of 170mm and the R180 is 190mm..........

as you already have the 2pot rears you'll not see a huge difference anyhows i suspect
