Question

I have a MY96 STi with standard 2 pot calipers,red stuff pads and standard discs!
Should i upgrade my discs to (grooved)and fit new pads@ about £275.00 or buy 2nd hand 4 pots,calipers and pads for around the same money?
Cheers
Darren

I'd plump for the four pots every time.
And then when they need new discs and pads, you can upgrade them.
Mind you I should add that you'll need at least 16's to clear them!

Yep,
I'll second that, just upgraded myself to 4s from 2s, big difference.also got EBC front and rear discs and reds front greens rear.

Car stops great now.

Also, if not got already - braided hoses.
Well worth it. My pedal travel halved when I fitted them.
