Default What fixes the brake disc to hub ?

I've just looked at one the drivers side and it would appear the only thing thats keeping it in place are the nuts that secure the wheel, doesn't strike me as being right somehow ?

'Also a little grub screw in the disc'

I've never seen a grub screw on an Impreza, theres a hole where a bolt can be wound into if the disc gets stuck to the drive flange.... is that what you thought was a grub screw??

I can also confirm that. Mine were loose with the wheel off when I replaced my pads. Although it is loose, I would not imagine it could come off without removing the caliper first

..... besides, you would already be in a bit of sh*t travelling without your wheels on, so the disks coming off would be the least of your worries!!
