4pots will fit certain 16 inch wheels 99 onwards subaru impreza models o.e wheel fitment,so depending on wheel choice 16 inch wheels will be fine with subaru 4 pot calipers.SJ.

I have a v3 typeRA and it had the 16's with the dimples,one was buckled so I bought joe's 16's from his v2. They only just fit with the 2 pots so I thought that there would be no chance on 4 pots fitting?
It's all a matter of cost really,getting 4 pots and new wheels just too much for now plus I love the v2 wheels I got off joe,although if I could get hold of a set of rays in the future that would be nice,lovely looking wheels

Try the pagid pads mate. Cheap enough with their usual discount codes flying about.

I would say PF Z-Rated pads are better,but mostly they're not so dusty as DS2500 or others

Have run them and I've love them on the wagon,I would try them,they're not bad priced against the other makers and deffor worth that on any fast road car

You can use them on track,but don't expect performance of the track orientated pads,we tried them on the Brands Hatch where they performed better than we are expected

With good fluid like is Performance Friction RH665 you have awesome combo

Thanks,Jura

I have ferrodo ds2500 in at the moment and they are a great pad with good bite once they have a bit heat through them.

Once they need replacing I will probably use preformance friction z(assuming I can get them to fit my Brembo GT's) as I had them on my E46 M3 and they were a very good pad for fast road at the money and also nowhere near as dusty as the ds2500s.

Used the blue Aztec fast road pads on a few different brake setups now for years and always been great.
