savage bulldogs Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Is it your front or rear brakes that you want to replace ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vass82 Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 will be both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I assume that yours has the 2 pot fronts a single pot rears that come as standard on the v2 ? Most upgrade the fronts to 4 pots with bigger dia discs off the later classics or newage wrx's with pcd 100 discs .these are a Straight fit but I would recommend braided lines to firm up the peddle feel . Have you got vented or solid rear discs ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vass82 Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 yea thats what they got and both front and rear vented Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 You can buy seal kits oe refurbished calipers from the likes of godspeed for both front or rears (if budget and spanner skills allow) I upgraded the fronts with some second hand subaru 4 pots and the rears to newage pcd 100 discs and 2 pot rear calipers . As I said before the fronts just bolt on but the rears have to have conversion brackets and the splash guards removed in order for the 2 pot rears to just bolt on with the bigger dia discs . Have a word with Ian @ godspeed or Alyn @Asperformance about the rear conversion brackets if that's the route you take . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vass82 Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 would these be ok for fronts http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAIR-FRONT-BRAKE-CALIPERS-DISCS-PADS-HOSES-FITS-SUBARU-IMPREZA-inc-WRX-BCA010A-/231546308478?hash=item35e93c477e:g:i-YAAOSwLN5WjSCh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Depends on what wheels you have on, they clear some 16" and go under all 17" so best of a checking your wheels 1st Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Forgot to ask what size rims your running, so good spot stants [emoji106] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vass82 Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 they are 16 at the mo but did want to get some 17 but not got the cash at the min so looks like il have to just get some original calipers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Unless you know someone local that has a classic running 4 pots on the front that would let you try 1 of your wheels on to see if the offset will clear them ? If you get rear 1 pot calipers and discs make sure they're for the vented rears .As the solid rear disc type calipers don't fit over the vented discs .
