I'll take some photos tonight.
I don't have the red 4 pots, I've got the black one. My research tells me there's only one caliper in a 4 pot that Subaru's released before the Brembo's. Do you have other info to suggest they might be different? |

no but I keep forgetting that AUS models are different from USDM models... Do me a favor and take some pics so I can just look at it. then i can ask for specific measurements

How much would it cost to send the 300zx and the 4pots my way?? Maybe we could exchange some parts... Maybe a 6mt X-member and shift linkage all ready to go into the SVX??

I'm using the 300zx ones on my car.
The 4 pots here go for around $650AUD. What's that worth in your money? I reckon it might be cheaper to get them there...weren't they only $50USD or so? We get a bit ripped off over here. |

So I've bolted them up and measured. Photos attached FWIW.
Based on my measurements, you'll need a disc of about 24mm thickness and 317mm diameter. With a height of about 58-60mm. The SVX rotors are not big enough. They are too thick which means they won't work at all. Scanning the DBA catalog, discs could be a problem. I suspect you might need to get custom ones made using the 2 piece setups you can get...that's big dollars. |

Nice work!, too bad the wrx caliper doesn't seem to be a low budget option.
What do the turbo 300 calipers look like? Can you take a pic for us? Quote:

The AU wrx rotors are 24mm thick? Are the new 4-pot wrxes for sale in the US using rotors 24mm thick?

New Brembo WRX's seem to be 30mm (the 05-06) with the 114.3 PCD. These seem the most likely as with the Brembo calipers (being already 30mm thick) and the 114.3PCD, they should go close to bolting on.
Tom will tell...or time will tell. Matt |

Heres pictures of the calipers.
Sorry for the quality |

Photos are **** aren't they...I'll wait till it's light and maybe try again if people want.
Not sure if I pointed out...Subaru calipers about 6.5kg each...Nissan calipers about 2.5kg. 14lbs to 5.5lbs each Matt |
