You can get the AP 4pot caliper kit with the larger 330m disk. Its always been an option but most people usually opt for 6-pots when using bigger disks.
A key decision in this some time ago was down to the availability of pads for the 6 pot caliper - only a few manufacturers produced them to work well with the subaru such. And the pads were (and probably still are) more expensive. There are loads of 4 pot pads to choose from by comparison.
The pad availability and costs a running factor if you do LOTS of trackdays and use your brakes hard. Disks I think are about £20 each more for replacements.
I know all this because on my second scoob I ran 4 Pots for this very reason.
I've not been in the scoob scene for over a 1 1/2 now but I would buy them if I was looking for better brakes.
I think scoobymania even sell this style package
Mike ?

Nothing wrong with AP 4 Pots and 330mm Discs, don't understand what the confusion is here....
I had a set on my car, and they were simply stunning, tbh I think that the 6 pots are overkill for the road, but fine for track, wheras the 330mm and 4 pots are superb on the road.

Agree with Toby and Ian, nothing wrong with the 4 pots and I doubt you'll notice the difference over 6 pots in real use IMHO. I have the AP 4 pots on 310mm discs (less stopping power than 330mm) but these are still better than anything else tried (and I've tried 'em all).
BTTT for a real bargain.

scoobySTI/WRX,
Not had a scooby for over 18 months now, Had three until then. My last one was this...but I moved onto something quicker and a daily driver (Golf PD150 - more torque than a WRX and 50+mpg regardless of how you drive it)

still miss her so, only the best HKS, OZ, Alcon and Defi components. probably the best all round car I ever drove...certified 317bhp, 289lbft with no ECU modifications other than prodrives own.
