I bought these from GST Motorsports in Hayward with the intention of using them, but sold my car before I needed it. These are the rear pads. $50 and it's yours.

I'm not a WRX, or Legacy expert, by any means, but weren't there some changes from the early MY03's and the later MY03's for the WRX. Possibly a change in the brakes?
As listed in my original post, only 03-05 WRX fits. Heedz, in your example, only the 02-03 WRX fit.
Maybe someone who else can chime in. Don't want to sell someone something that won't fit their car.
I did some googling and found this: http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/suspen...fferences.html

I did some googling and found this: WRX brake pad differences
2002: All 2002 WRXs have a combination of D721 front pads and D770 rear pads.
2003: Starting in July of 2002 (2003 cars were made in 2002), Subaru decided on new brake calipers for both the front and rear, which consisted of a D929 front pad and D1004 rear pad. This created four variants of WRX brake setups:
1. Some early 2003 cars got the 2002 style D721 and D770 setup
2. Some cars got the older D721 front pads and the new-style D1004 rear pads
3. Some vehicles got the new D929 front pads with the older D770 rear pads
4. Some got the new D929s front and D1004 rear setup.
