Default New calipers needed for MY00, will newage fit?

Had my car serviced today, MY00 UK Turbo. Had an advisory note to say both front caliper bottom pistons beginning to seize. They were freed up but I should think about replacing them.

I wondered if it was possible to fit newage WRX calipers to my hubs. Will they fit over the standard discs and will they go behind the standard 16" wheels?

Thanks

4 pot Subaru calipers are exactly the same on classics and newage so will fit. 294mm discs and 5x100 PCD hubs

Also have you tried and refurbed set from Reconditioned Calipers

Hi
Yes we can offer you reconditioned calipers on an exchange basis , we make our own stainless steel pistons that will never rust , and fit new seals , you can have the calipers any colour you want and we charge £195 a pair exchange plus £15 P&P

It would depend on the available calipers , I have about 6 pairs in circulation at the moment , and need that many for exchanging them , I pay about £100 for a pair of calipers that need reconditioning , so you would be looking at £295 a pair outright

I can vouch for Ian's refurb'd calipers, super service from Ian, and super calipers, as he says they have stainless steel pistons so once fitted you can forget about them....that is until you decide to go and buy the 335mm upgrade kit to get the best out of them
