Question GC8 4 pot brake on GD8?

I was wondering if it would fit, because if it does, I might carry a set back from Taiwan and put it on my car.

Taiwan still doesn't have the new gen Impreza, so there are still no parts for me to get for my car. I was wondering what are some GC8 parts that would fit GD8??

you'll need new rims, the 2002 16 inch rims don't fit the 4pot

yes....u need 98-01 wheels to fit Subaru 4 pots....

extra money onto the bill man...

just get s/s brakelines, good pads and rotors and that will be enough....IF you are not going to turbo charged later...

I think I've seen a kit for sale on Subaruparts.com, it's a kit to upgrade the front brakes to WRX's... I'm thinking doing that will be more than enough...

why not just upgrade to a 2002 wrx front brakes. I think they are bigger, and a lot cheaper to do.
