they are not a bolt on job................discs have a totally different (bigger) h/brake diameter and the calipers have different mounting lugs........

easier to fit the later new-age Subaru 2pot calipers and 290mm discs...........DYNEY does a bracket set, have a look in the GB section

alyn

p.s. how much have you paid for the BREMBO calipers?? might know a man that would want them..........

sounds like maximum effort for minimum return, appreciate the feedback though guys.

look on classifieds for sale forum for a set of rear gold brembo's.
