Hi everybody,

I am in the middle of rebuilding my car and this time I am upgrading my brakes. Having 9.5" wide grids with standard uk turbo brakes looks a bit silly.

So I want to upgrade to the Subaru 4 pot Brake calipers at the front and the 2 pots at the rear including disc's. I have seen some of an 02 Bugeye.

So what do I need and need to know? most of my confusion center's on the rears with my standard brakes having in bored hand brake shoes.

Do the 2 pots still require the in bored hand brake shoes or does the hand brake work of the caliper instead of a drum?

Please any and all information is required.

Thank you in advance.

 

fronts bolt straight on as a "set"..........

rears will work fairly easily if you again fit as a "set" off the donor car BUT you will need an adaptor bracket to match the 2pot mounts to the original sliding caliper backing plate

all TURBO's use an in-drum handbrake

Great stuff thank you for the in sight matey. Top man.

 

Depending on disc diameter, you may also have to remove the disc backing plates off the car.
