Default braided hoses for my95 wrx

hi there, i need some advice.
i want to try and get some form of decent braking from my standard 2pots as i cant afford to upgrade to 4pots and a set of wheels at present. A local motorbike garage said they could knock up some braided hoses for me if i find out what fittings and sizes etc i need. as they arent sure on car plans but make them up for bikes all the time.
they have lots of different fittings but said they could just make them using banjo joints, will this be good enough or will it need the specific fittings?
cheers in advance for any info

get them to match them to your old ones. Or i will have a broken braided hose after the weekend so could send it over for you to get matched.

Be interested to hear what the results are, I am in the same boat (as in: stops like one...)
I have found that uprated pads don't do the job (I have EBC discs, pah!), OEM pads are the only ones that don't judder....
