2 pots on R180 rear end


Recommended Posts

I have a GC8 that had V7 Brembos and hubs on it and I am converting back to regular STI 4/2 pots. I am trying to work out what I need in the way of rear discs and callipers.

 

Reading the 2 pot rear brake thread -

 

 

I think I have the narrow mount and should fit V4-6 rear 4 pots fine on this, but I wanted to see if anyone knows for sure? And by the looks BH5/BE5 rear rotors should fit? Having measured the hub it's definitely 190mm inner diameter.

I thought in terms of calipers mounting brembos and 2 pots where interchangeable. (now confirmed after reading the link)

 

As for rotors, long time ago I brought mine and the memory struggles but reading that link suggests v7/8 WRX rotors, assuming you have the r160 rear end.

From memory these are the 290mm rotor with 190mm handbrake?

Appears the v7/8 wrx with 4/2 pots have a few listings but the 290mm have the same part number as the 290mm from the be5/bh5 (repco's part number TSR653, could ring them and get them to measure the inner diameter as the system doesn't list it)

Sorry, should have said R180 rear end. I have a BH5, so might nick a rotor off that and see if it fits. Now to find some 2 pot rears to put on the car then.

 

If my memory is serving my right, on Version 5-6 STi with R180 rear end the front rotors are circa 296mm and rears and 276mm. Cannot remember the ID of the rears sorry. 

 

If you don't mind me asking. Why are you going back to Subaru 4/2's from Brembo's?

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
