I just bought some cheap 4 pot front calipers for my wrx bugeye (2000 jdm) 2+1 pot standard calipers currently fitted. Will my original brake discs work with these 4 pots - are my original brake discs 294mm?

cheers, i just really needed to be 100% sure the 4 pots will fit straight onto my standard discs as i wasnt sure if they were 294mm discs.

nah mine definately doesnt have the 4/2 pots, its only 2002 (REV C) & newer jdm models that have the 4/2 pot setup.

Yes some of the import bugeye's did have the 2 pot calipers fitted as standard on the front , yes the hubs are the same fitment for brakes , so the subaru 4 pots will fit straight on , you will need the 294mm discs to go with them , they will not fit on your standard 277mm discs.
