Eh? The photos show Subaru 2 pot rears being fitted to a classic.... nothing to do with STi 8 Brembos

To fit twin pot rears (i.e MY01 wrx onwards rear calipers and classic V4 onwards from an RA, Type R) you need the brackets posted above, the calipers/pads and discs from a MY01 WRX (not the classic type Rs). The discs are 290mm and have a 170mm internal handbrake drum (classic type R/RAs have 190mm drum).
