Hi,
I'm looking at replacing my front pads when I put the car in for service. How much should I pay for a set of replacement pads of types; (1) Std Impreza (2) Mintex 1144 (3) Mintex 1155 (4) Pagid Which is best (Ooo, cue long thread...) and should I change the rears as well ? cheers Andy |
Which model year is it?
99MY Standard pads are £99 plus vat, as i just found out to my horror http://bbs.sidc.co.uk/frown.gif |
Hi Ian,
It's a 98MY Terzo (not that that makes a difference !). I want pads that will work straight away when you press the pedal and don't have "warm up" cheers Andy |
It does make a difference unless you have the 99 4 Pot brakes installed http://bbs.sidc.co.uk/smile.gif I dont think Pagid make pads for the 98.

Hi Ian,
I meant I don't suppose it matters if it's a MY98 or a MY98 Terzo ! So, back to the plot... I've just phoned Pagid and you are indeed right - only up to MY97 apparently. So it'll be Mintex then. cheers Andy |
I thought the brakes were identical between the MY97 and MY98 models, so how come Pajid pads can be had for a MY97 but not a MY98?
I haven't tried Mintex pads, but previous discussions have suggested that they take a little warming up before giving you optimum braking performance. I am using Pajid pads (on STi 4-pot calipers) and am very pleased with their performance. |
Hi Dave,
Thanks Cheers Andy |
Hi Andy,
My 1155's were £100 + VAT for a front set on MY97. They charged me peanuts for fitting them during the 45,000 mile service. Cheers Dave |
Pagid Pads Scoobysport no longer does for the MY98 untill further notice workshop had to cut pads to make them fit and it was shagging there cutters. See demon tweeks 99 catalogue
pagid pads for all Impreza's £45 front £43 rear. Bob |
