presuming you have a UK/euro spec car then there is only ONE option..............
4pot "subaru" front calipers with 294mm b/discs and 266mm vented rear discs with single pot sliding caliper..........
normally fairly easy to o/haul front calipers although depends on how "seized" they are??

Yes you do on an MY99 onwards car , you can see the word subaru on the outside half of the calipers , they are prone to seizing given the age of them , we are seeing a lot of calipers every week to recondition , I can supply you any parts needed on your braking system.
From stainless steel piston that will not rust like the mild steel standard ones , I can supply you seal kits , and even fully reconditioned calipers on an exchange basis.
I can also supply you grooved discs if needed , top quality german made discs that we groove ourselfs , not cheap crap from china that every man and his dog seems to sell cheaper.
If you need any help or advise putting it right , either email me on ian@godspeedbrakes.co.uk or ring me on 01656 723060
Cheers Ian

Hi
Our reconditioned calipers are £195 a pair exchange , we can either do yours , you send them in for us to do and it takes us 2 full days to do them , obviously if you need the car everyday its not very practical , so we can send you out a pair of reconditioned calipers to swap over , and you send yours back , we would require a deposit of £125 which is refunded upon the return of your old units , we can use your old calipers as long as there is no damage to the casting , have seen people trying to remove the calipers off the discs by hitting them with a hammer because they were seized on !! and as long as all the threads are intact
P&P is £15
We are making pistons now as we have had a mad rush on these in the last week , I did have 120 pistons made , and sent the last 8 out yesterday , I can have a pair ready to send out monday for you which would get to you tuesday
Cheers Ian
