Default Will These Calipers Fit

Hi All.
Another problem now Just sorted the oil leak and now have a seized front caliper. Good news is that friend has found a pair of discs and calipers from early WRX and says they are grooved vented 2 pot, as oppose to my 1 large pot.
As I have a P1 96 Sport and not a Turbo .Will these bolt on to the hubs and clear my standard sport 15" wheels without any modifications? Been told from my friend that the early WRX had same size wheels as mine but were wider, but just need to make sure as dont fancy buying 3mm spacers or even changing the wheels to fit the new brakes.

(Need to move this, just noticed section for wheels ,tyres , brakes, oops. Hope someone can move this for me.)

Just learnt that 2 pot will fit my standard wheel, giving me just enough clearance, so looks all good to me. Can anyone else confirm this?

Can someone also confirm that a Legacy 2 Pot set up will fit my standard 15" Alloys? Have found a car which has disc size of 276mm on it/ 2 pot ?

2-pot fronts will fit a sport, as Ash up the road from me has them on his 97/98 Sport.
I don't think they will fit behind the standard 15" though you my need a couple of small spacers.

HI Silversurfer.

I know they might fit know, but been told they will run very close to wheels only leaving about 5mm between wheel and caliper. Might have to move my stick on weights and get clip on or let the weights get smoothed down by the caliper as dont fancy getting spacers.
Thanks for confirming that they will fit.
