Default Sti 4 pots onto a wrx

Hi all

Hoping for a bit of advice with regards a brake upgrade. The car in question is a wrx terzo running standard size discs with standard calipers, what i would like to do is fit later spec 4 pots and discs off an sti.

Is this possible? which model sti etc and bits would be required?

Many thanks to anyone that can help?

Is 195mm discs the correct size mate, they always seemed much larger than that to me on the sti's.

Thanks for the response what i wanted to hear.

The discs are 294mm, along with the 'SUBARU' 4 pot caliper they will literally bolt straight onto your car.... it would be worth checking that your wheels will clear them first though, they need 16's at least, but they don't all fit, so ideally find someone with these calipers on their car already, and try one of your wheels on it....

Hi Craig

Sorry not answered sooner i don't get on here to much. Thanks for the heads up but i have sourced a pair, they were sort of there just needed to know if they fit. My mate has a wrx though and is planning the same upgrade in a few weeks or so, I'll pass the number on to him.

Cheers Dave
