Question JDM Subaru 4POT/ JDM Brembo rear 2POT brake calipers questions...

I have some questions on these two brake systems.

First, for the JDM subaru 4pot front and 2pot rears, what kind of stainless lines can i use?

Second, for the Brembo rear calipers, isn't there a company that makes some rotors that'll fit the brembo's thickness and width so that i'll still be able to use the e-brake from the regular WRX?

Thanks in advance for all help!

You can use any WRX lines. They are the same.

Brembo makes those "conversion" rotors.

Lines are the same, but putting the 2 pots on the rear is an ordeal without the adapter kits that racecompengineering.com and some other vendors sell. Yes, you can use 30ZX pads on 4 pots, but I'd recommend sticking to the Subaru OE pads for street driving. It's a really good compound.
