I may be getting a set of Subaru 4-pots from an earlier WRX sometime in the not-too-distant future.
I was in Australia over the holidays and got to thinking.... I could probably find a set of 4-pots there for MUCH cheaper than in America....... They got the same WRXes as Japan, so you could probably find them at a junkyard fairly easily.
I'm back now, but I have my dad (who is working over there for the time being) looking for a set for cheap. I am hoping to get everything for about $200 less than I could get them here.
If I get them, I'm gonna pick up a set of '99 RS 6-spoke wheels to fit over them. Before then, I'll probably get a set of SS lines and decent pads (axxis or carbotechs) and rotors to go with them.
Just thought I'd share (and brag just a little).,

just FYI the 4 pot rotors are the same as the USDM WRX rotors.

I'm on First and First. How can the same street intersect with itself? I must be at the nexus of the universe.

yup.
I could probably find someone with a set of stock rotors for pretty cheap, too. I will get around to getting decent slotted rotors later.
