Default Rear Caliper upgrade

Will the rear calipers from a 2000 model fit my 96 UK car??

Here are pics of the calipers:



Need to know if they will muck up the handbrake side of things.
Also what size discs and pads will I need.
And finally is this an easy conversion, do they bolt straight on or do I need any extra brackets etc...

All help appreciated

I would imagine these are from a New Age car?

Anyhow, Dyney can supply some brackets that allow the fitment of the 2 pots onto the original classic backing plates. You also need New age discs with 170mm HB and 290mm diameter.

Like mine!

What year WRX is it? (Classic?)
These are rear brake upgrades. The bracket should fit all Classics and Legacys with sliding rear calipers
