1997 L.. Brake upgrades?
Hello all, I'm a newbie to subaru and I just picked up an impreza L.. after finishing and selling my S13..... My L has 14' rotors in the front and drums in the back..
Does anyone know what if any of the newer subaru brakes fit my L?
Thanks in advance...

You must have some aftermarket brakes. I don't think my brakes are that big and I have an L. Let me check. Yeah... I think the stock rotors are like 10 inches or something.
My opinion, don't screw with it unless you are planning to do a swap.
I am also assuming you are running stock wheels. You might try getting 2.5RS or WRX brakes. Those should bolt up given that your wheels will clear the rotor and caliper. If you are really dedicated, and you can find the parts, you can try to do a drum to disc conversion.

Good luck.
