i have a late 97 (facelift) impreza turbo 2000 uk and want to buy new brake discs ready for mot front and rear. ive seen some on ebay and need to confirm im buying the right ones for my model what diameter and thickness is the front vented and rear solid also can i fit vented on the rear?

 

Front if on the standard 2 pots, 277mm
Rear are 266mm

I'd look at Godspeed before I put anything on my car from e-bay.
You only get one chance with brakes, fella.

 

do you know the thickness (depth) of the standard discs front and rear so i know what to buy

 

I've got a set of 4 discs off ebay had no probs, but I only fitted OE pads. Them godspeed discs are not a bad price aswell.

 

I can supply you front and rear grooved discs with black painted centres and front and rear kevlar fast road pads including VAT and delivery for £195

that's cheep cheep cheep like the budgie

 

also i dont need top of the range brakes just wanted to improve on standard, so whats wrong with vented drilled grooved i thought most brake mods included uprated disc to that spec. i found out front discs are 277mm x 24mm vented (2pot) and rear 266m x 10mm solid was also going to upgrade to braded hoses as read they improved brakes to.

ive already bought mintex pads and waiting for delivery so just needed front and rear discs and found some on ebay the fronts are right size 277mm x 24mm vented but rear were wrong as vented are 266mm x 18mm so too thick so i need just solid grooved drilled 266mm x 10mm but this guy on ebay isnt into messaging back that quick... thanks anyway mate!

 

shame i didnt know before about your brake package it does seem a good price but i already bought mintex pads and in process of buying discs.

 

sounds like you got the same discs as me, I also have a 97 uk turbo. I've upgrade to braded hoses, one of the best things to do.

 

If you don't get sorted with the ebay seller, give me a call, just down the road from you too

 

My vote goes to Godspeed.

 

how much can you do me a set of these just for the front, will these discs and pads be better than my standard ones as i find mine not to be very sharp, many thanks
