Legacy L going 2pot front. *

[sauceyf4]

I reciently found some front 2pot calipers/brackets/and rotors off a 2001 outback at the local impot junk yard. (super super cheap) I wasnt able to get the rears though.

my question is about the Front/Rear braking bias.

Can I install the 2pot fronts and leave my stock 1pot in the rear,. without it being overly front bias ?

my car came with single pot front and rear* FYI

With that swap you be braking like a GT/SUS/Outback..

Safe and proper..

It shouldn't be much different. I did WRX in the front (294mm I believe) and its horribly bias to the front. H6 my rears soon to help balancing it out.

Yup thats called the H6 brake upgrades for the Gen 1/2 legacy.

I may be getting the rear brakes off the junked Outback due the person who had dibs on them not showing up (twice) to pull them. Im grabbing the caliper, bracket and rotor.
Will I need the heat sheilds as well?
