Welcome to scoobynet Matt 
Check out our site at SMACS Subaru Club, South Manchester And Cheshire Scooby's and get yourself along to Novembers meeting 
In the meantime, I'd highly recommend Adam @ Autotechnica in Buxton, a little far to travel but well worth it for excellent service at very good prices.
01298 27391
If that's too far, then give Prosport a call. The same excellent service and still cheaper than a main dealer.

What brakes are you going to refit? There are loads of options for various budgets. Ebc discs and pads are a good upgrade, or perhaps you're looking at AP's?

i have just been to nurburgring in a standard bmw318 half way round i had brake fade, so i ended up putting HAWK RACING PADS in (recommended by local german garages) mention ebc and ferodo you get 1 word "****" they all use HAWK or PADGETT pads for track use!!!!!
i used them on a standard brake set up and got NO brake fade lap after lap!!!!!!!!
the 2 mechanics with us (they had a classic impreza)couldn't believe the braking!!!!!
depending on what you want to do with your car, i would just buy some decent pads (hawk pads 160euro!!front only) on a standard set up and have them fitted at a local garage, its not rocket science and save yourself a few quid
