Default STI 7 Brembo Brakes ....

Will they fit on my '96 import riding on 17" P1 alloys?
The calipers (gold) come with 325mm discs...?
Mate's brother is selling them...

They will bolt on fine, its whether or not they will fit under your rims. Are they P1 copies, i.e Rota? I believe these are the only make of 17 inch alloys that fit over the callipers in question.

The alloys are the OZ racing P1's. If however i do get some problems with clearance, i suppose a spacer could be a simple solution? Thanks fro your help.

They won't fit, the spacer would need to be about 12mm to clear!
The brake bias would be wrong as well as the piston sizes are too big for anything other than an STi

OK, i guess i should just try and source some discs/calipers from a 98/99 onwards - the one's with Subaru on the side and the 294mm discs... i heard they go on without a problem.. thanks...

They will fit perfectly other than a small clearance issue with the backing plate which is easy to adjust. The piston sizes are also right for the rest of the brake system.
