Default 4 Pot Calipers

Hi all, just bought an import WRX 225 and it has had some 4 pot calipers fitted with 304mm discs.

My question is that I want to replace the pads and I'm not sure what I'm looking for considering it has got this upgrade.

I believe the current pads in it are Mitsubishi EVO Hawk HP pads - I'm a little confused as to why they are Mitsi EVO pads???

Also, the car was listed as having the "Modified bell to rotor fixing system".

Any help greatly appreciated, especially since this is my first Impreza and I think I have a lot of learning to do!

Thanks,

Mark

sounds like they are 2piece discs with an ali bell bolted to an extrenal rotor (should be easy to i.d as it will have a number of bolts holding the two together)........
easiest with the pad is to draw around the backing outline and then i.d. from there

Hi, yeah they're 2 piece discs. I haven't got any pics as yet. It was mainly the Mitsubishi EVO bit that confused me tbh.

I'm under the impression they are AP Racing 4 pots after a friend had a look but I will be able to confirm after Wed evening when the car goes to my mechanic for oil and filter an diff oil change. He's going to have a look around the car for me to make sure all is as it should be.

Thanks.
