Default 294mm rotors & 2 pot caliper front brake package upgrade... cheap

Hi, i have a cheap front brake upgrade for anyone that has a pre99 wrx, they are off a my06 XT forester but will fit all impreza's, foresters and i'm sure liberty's too, i'm pretty sure these are the same brakes as the factory B4 liberty too

they utilise the same wrx 294mm rotor and provide an excellent cheap upgrade over the standard early wrx & gt forester 277mm rotors

i'm looking for $250 for the calipers, rotors and pads, they have done approx 50,000 k's, rotors have never been skimmed and the pads are still the factory xt ones, rotors have plenty of meat left on them but i would have to remove my wheel to see exactly how much is left on the pads

you will need at least 16in rims to clear them, the calipers don't stick out as far as the wrx 4 pots so older style 16in wrx rims may clear ok, you are welcome to come and check your rims on my car

brakes are currently on my gt foz but will be coming off in the next week or so when my 4 pots arrive

these are a great upgrade for any subaru that currently uses rx/gx/early wrx brakes. it has also been proven that these brakes have greater braking torque over wrx 4 pots. see this post for details:

but please note these brakes are NOT better than wrx 4pots

so yeah, $200 complete package
