How do you plan on fitting 326mm rotors under the Subaru 4pots? Just compare the size of the two rotors and your answer should come because there is no way you can fit a rotor that large under that caliper. 
I am assuming that you have the Subaru 4pots because you mentioned Liberty and are probably from Austrailia. Just a guess. Correct me if I am wrong.
If you run the STi Brembos then it would work, but watch out for caliper clearance with the wheel.

Could you be more specific as to what calipers came with your car? Because in the States, we get 2pot calipers on the front with single pistons on the rear. We also get the same size rotor as the Subaru 4pots, but we get a 2pots caliper with that rotor.

Do you have a picture of what your brakes look like?
Do your brakes fill the whole wheel(is the caliper really close to the inside of the wheel)?
I am pretty sure that your rears are 10.3"(260mm) in diameter and am guessing that you have 10.7"(270mm)fronts. The rotors that come with the WRX in the US are 11.4"(294mm) and the rears are the same.

STi rotor won't fit.
the inner diameter for parking brake is different too.
There is a kit that let you use the Celica rotor which is bigger.
You might wanna consider that one.
Older Celica is 5x100
