capnkirk83 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 I am looking at upgrading rotors on my car (GT-B) and am trying to figure out if there are any known differences I need to consider before purchase. R1 concepts has criteria for '96 Subaru Legacy Wagon GT' but figured I would check here before buying. https://www.r1concepts.com/detail_catalog/index/r1-carbon-geomet-Series_eLINE-Series/ref=SUBARU+LEGACY+1996+WagonSMCL_GTcma_LSi;_with_Rear_Disc_Brakes+Front_and_Rear+Drilled_and_Slotted_Rotor++Optimum_OEp++eLINE-Series Apologies if this is covered somewhere, I did try to look around a bit first.

LosMan603 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Did you find an answer to your question? I just purchased a 97 GTB. I am also hungry to find answers for how to fit USDM stuff to the JDM platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capnkirk83 Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 Did you find an answer to your question? I just purchased a 97 GTB. I am also hungry to find answers for how to fit USDM stuff to the JDM platform. From what I have found the GT-B has 295mm Front \ 290mm Rear...for reference the USDM GT I have found is equipped with 277mm Front \ 266mm Rear. The GC8 STI brakes swap over (from what I have heard, still trying to confirm). Hopefully some of my digging helps out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosMan603 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) I also found this website( http://www.partsouq.com) it has a ton of usdm part numbers for jdm applications. You can search by vin, it’s pretty sweet. It looks like the 02-03 USDM WRXC pads/rotors will fit our GTB's. Seems like the 4 pot/ 2pot upgrade from wrx will also fit. I will need to do front pads/rotors sometime this summer, but Ill probably just stay with oem. Based on what I have been reading, the oem GTB brakes were sufficient even for light track use. I have 2 car seats in my wagon... so Ill stay off the track lol. Where are you located anyways? I am in New Hampshire.
