Recently got ahold of a set of WRX front calipers, and brackets. What else if anything do I need to IOT make them work properly on my car(97 Impreza L) besides Wrx rotors and pads?
For those of you that are going to tell me "search button" too late I already have an active search going, just figured I'd post this while I was waiting for the results. ;)
Thanks

oh yeah one more thing, will my stock master cylinder be able to keep solid pressure going to the stronger calipers or should that be upgraded as well?
Def getting stainless steel lines

my 94 L master cylinder gets the job done, no problem...I have the ABS 4 disc option...

it would not hurt to uprgade the master IMO, my fiance's L has my RS front calipers/rotors and the pedal feel is just kind of blah, there's nothing special to it. My car has 2003 WRX calipers/rotors

Yeah, a larger bore MC keeping the single-stage booster would be ideal.
Also, you need the larger WRX dust shields, if you're gunna run them.

Good call. You could go that route, too.

what wheels do you have that will fit those? i have a 95 impreza base coupe, with the 13" steelies, and know they wouldnt fit under those... but i need to get some wrx brakes and wheels.
