I mean that it is pretty loud and obnoxious. It means it will be an instant cop magnet. They hear loud car swell before they see them. Especially if you are exploring the limits.

Should fit on since Brembos from that age wrx fit on an 86. You may need to swap the calipers from left to right and move the bleeders and cross pipe if they have different sized pistons.
