August 15, 20169 yr 4 POT brakes 294 mm (NOT brembo) + matching 2 POT rear calipers, ideally with discs to match and in good condition, ideally painted. Some SF5/Impreza sensors - part numbers can be provided. Middle section glovebox - above the stereo Driver's side wind deflector
August 16, 20169 yr I have a dash box lid sat in the cave somewhere, I'll dig out and pop a pic up for you Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Godspeed will sell you a set of 'wrx' 4pots discs pads all brand new for 300 quid
August 16, 20169 yr Author Is that the whole lot included, calipers, pads, discs for both rear and front? Is there an advert somewhere or pics?
August 16, 20169 yr Just the fronts, won't clear 16's though unless you get some off a late classic http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/impreza-ver-4-onwards-type-r/114-brand-new-4-pot-calipers-with-kevlar-pads-and-grooved-discs.html Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
August 16, 20169 yr Author ok thank you. Why won't that clear under 16? it's under 300 mm, I've seen a guy who has ford Fiesta and his brother put the brakes from Mondeo V6, 300mm to 15 inch FIESTA. I've seen it with my own eyes -) Can you show me the pics of how the late classics looks like? The price is pretty good, however I need all 4 ideally and was not after the brand new...
August 16, 20169 yr Author Is anyone tested them? cause it's a fake copy isn't it not original calipers? Are they need good in terms of reliability? Where can I source the rear calipers, as mine needs replacing really or rebuild, but I would rather replace and get a spare set.
August 17, 20169 yr Sandals has had them on his impreza for a while now as his original subaru ones died, It's the spoke shape and offset That stops them from clearing, on the 16" foz rims Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
August 17, 20169 yr Quality good, probably made in same factory just don't have subaru on the side, These 16" clear Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

August 17, 20169 yr Author It's a pity about standard wheels though... probably the actual wheel design then, With some aftermarket wheel they will fit with 16 inch for sure.
August 17, 20169 yr It's to do with the offset and width of the wheel. Early cars were designed using 2 pot brakes so didn't need wider or a different offset. Later cars needed the extra space for the larger 4 pot. My standard wheels are 16 inch. Clears 4 pots.
August 17, 20169 yr These are the late standard classic wheels that clear 4 pots. Disc size doesn't matter too much.
August 17, 20169 yr Author Right, I see. Can you share your offset please and whatever is written on the actual wheel when you get a chance? Thank you!
August 17, 20169 yr Impreza & legacy offset +55 Forester +48 Not sure on the width of impreza rims possibly j7 ? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
August 17, 20169 yr I'll have to look to be 100% sure. Wheels are off Saturday for new tyres so will snap pics then.
August 24, 20169 yr Author Do I understand correctly that the bigger the offset the better for the 4 POT installation? or is it vice versa?
August 25, 20169 yr More the shape of the wheel, oem 17" rims from foz xt with +48 clear 4's fine Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
August 25, 20169 yr Author Well 17 should clear 350mm easy not 294mm -) 300mm can be cleared by 15 inch..... I see your point though. Offset makes the difference here as well.
August 25, 20169 yr It's not the size of the disc that create interference with 4 pots. It's the width of the caliper. Didn't get a chance to get the reasons off the wheels. It's in again this weekend for more work I'll try again.
August 26, 20169 yr was a 2 pot conversion kit for 150 on a facebook page this morning but cant find it
August 26, 20169 yr Author I see. I did rear calipers rebuild today, also mechanic was using rather dodgy grease, since it had no name on the can, but he said if it's starts leaking he'll fix them for free, so that was a relief -) Still got old discs and pads though, they're ok, but I want to put good mintex pads at the back and I need to find them first.
