FRONT DISCS
 
hi folks i have just bought second hand drilled and grooved discs for my 93 wrx as my old discs were crap and standard solid ones the discs i got are just a wee bit rusty just minor so am i rite in saying that i have to skim the discs before i can use them:confused::confused:

I cleaned up a lightly rusted pair with a wire wheel in a drill.

It worked a treat.

Your life isn't worth the cost of a couple of new discs? Best of luck mate.

Drilled discs = crap, they can shatter under hard use, a new set of grooved discs are not expensive, or just upgrade to 4 pots :)
