You can't easily alter the disc size without either modding, or replacing your calipers.

A good starting place is to get hold of a pair of the newer 4-pot calipers, the ones fitted to cars from 99 onwards, with SUBARU on them in raised letters, and fit them, and their discs, to the front.

For more advice, drop a line at e-mail to ian@godspeedbrakes.co.uk

Or look at High Performance Brakes - Supplying AP and Brembo brake kits for road and motorsport use

Sorry, misunderstood your post, when you said the "best size" I thought you meant what would give the best stopping power, not what size discs your car needed.
