The H6 rears also fit and are larger.

 

Aren't 15" wheels needed to clear those?

 

But, yeah, everything should fit right in. Not sure about the parking brake, though.

 

I have some WRX front brakes, and I'm thinking of doing the bigger rears.

 

The bigger rears didn't just come on H6s. All 00+ Legacies with rear discs have the 290mm rear rotors. But, yeah, just kind of a technicality. H6 is the most used term.

 

One other thing is that the caliper changed, maybe in 98 for Imprezas, and 00 for Legacies. If you have older calipers and want to upgrade to the 290 mm discs, you'll need the brackets and new calipers, out of any Subaru with the newer caliper (except STi).

 

I got my WRX front calipers and brackets off a guy locally for $100. I've heard of people paying less, and more. I'd say it was on the low side of average. If my parents give me some cash to do my brakes (which are going to need work soon anyway), I'll probably see if he still has his rear calipers and buy some H6 brackets and rotors so I can put on bigger brakes all around.

 

This is on a 93 Legacy AWD with WRX wheels btw.

Sounds cool, hoping to get a bit more stoping power with those even if they arent the large diameter
