SpaceMayne Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 A guy on my local classifieds is selling slotted and cross drilled rotors that he bought for his 04/05 claims they are 11.5 inch would they fit fine on my 97? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TbirdMan Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 would they "fit"? yes and no, they would fit on your hub, but you would need later calipers. or at least the brackets. I have heard that the mounting for the calipers is the same between the early and late calipers so it might be as simple as the later brackets. do you have the single or 2 pot calipers?

jamal Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 if they are 11.4" rotors they will not fit without changing your caliper bracket. your stock brakes are 10.7" the 2004 LGT got 11.4" rotors the 2005 LGT got 12.3" rotors the 2004/2005 wrx got 11.4" the 2004 and 2005 non-LGT got 10.7" rotors which are the same as your stock ones.

TexasLegacy2.5GT Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I know for a fact that the rotors from A 2000 3rd Gen Legacy is a direct replacment on a 99' LGT. I just did that brake job myself. Same bracket and same caliper fit just fine. I believe that the 2000 rotor is the same part number as the 99'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TbirdMan Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Yes, the 00-04 legacy L's had the 10.7" rotors up front in 03 the GT got 11.4" front rotors outbacks got the 11.4" rotors in 01. all had the 11.3" rear rotors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TbirdMan Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 and you DO need the new bracket for the 11.4" rotors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TbirdMan Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 also, unless they are a great deal, I say pass. slotted/drilled rotors are really not useful for much on the street besides bling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
