ive not heard anything bad said about the pf discs or the ebc ndx blue on brembo brakes, so i would say they would be a good choice!!

PF Discs front, BrakeTech rear and Bluestuff NDX all round will work great.

Mines a 98 classic, runs Brembos all round. 400bhp or thereabouts.

It's on Godspeed two-piece discs at the front with Kevlar pads, standard STi discs at the rear with standard pads, and has had the brake bias mod done.

Stops well, planted and feels under control.

I've always had Godspeed stuff and would continue to use it, I can't praise him enough. Knows his stuff, helpful and makes his own discs/bells, which he guarantees even if you track the car.

Go for Godspeed, you'll not regret it.
