[G-unit]

you need some v7/8 WRX rear hubs. OR the adapter plates.

AFAIK the standard v3-6 sti you have is r160 so this is why you need WRX not STI hubs. v7/8 WRX hubs fortunately are still r160 but have the correct spacing for 2pot rears )

The adapter plates bolt up to your factory hubs.

either way you obviously want the 2pot rears + the rotors. your factory brake lines bolt up

[G-unit]

so my factory rotors arnt the same size either?

we tryed the 2 pots on a 93 wrx ra and they were the same as mine, he has a 94 wrx with ver7 running gear so were unsure wat i need

also what do 2pots usually sell for? these look mint sort of a dark grey colour

[G-unit]

id rather try get some adaptors as that seems the easiest

[funkytown]

personally i dont like adapters.. they look a bit flimsey.. and i can tell you .. brake failure SUX ballz...

adapters do seem to work though.

AFAIK they are different rotors. but just measure them dude.

what price - NFI

[G-unit]

now to find some adaptors for a quick fitment as my singles keep sticking

hopefully some one will know wat there worth

[funkytown]

I think bemrose / blazed has a set around the $200 mark

[G-unit]

mate wants $250 for these, nice thick pads and look dam tidy

[funkytown]

i meant adapters

[petrolheadjman]

I have the set reuben had

Adaptors are all good, seem fairly solid

[G-unit]

makes for a expensive upgrade then ;D

[G-unit]

would a BH GTB have the correct hubs?

[funkytown]

no definately not. the have a different rear end suspension set up. i told you v7/8 non sti hubs are what you need.they are the only option

[newsuba]

^ what he said

STI v5/6 with sliding calliper rear brakes have tiny 266mm rear rotors.

STI RA's, v7/8 WRX and others that use the Subaru 2-pot rears have 290mm rotors.

[funkytown]

but not v3sti. they are oddball as hell.

and the v4-6ra do not have abs rings. and are r180

v7/8wrx hubs are r160 and have the abs rings you need.

Itd be nice for bh owners everywhere if they had the same hubs but life isnt that kind

[G-unit]

so looks like if i do go ahead with this ill need new rotors to match also

do i need to adjust anything else or is it rather basic to swap ie- brake adapters,new larger disc's and 2pots??

cheers for the info
