Best disks and pads for a GC8

Hi all

I have an impreza gc8 sti v3. Recently put ICP disks and pads on all round but thinking of upgrading.

Is it worth changed the discs as well as pads or will quality pads work fine with ICP disks for road use?

I have the 4 pot and 2 pot set up

Any ideas on great fast road disks/pads?

The best advice I can give is to phone Alyn at AS Performance tomorrow morning...

He knows his brakes (and just about everything Subaru related) and will be able to offer you upgraded pads and discs too if required.

A tegiwa brake stopper, some new brake fluid and new some braided hoses will go a long way to improve feel.

Also Godspeed brakes have both a type R and an RA (I think). They've probably got a good idea of what works...
