Classic Impreza Rear Brakes
 
Hi All

Looking to change, update & upgrade my rear discs & pads on my RB5 ?

All recommendations & advice greatly appreciate, cheapest places to purchase etc etc ?

Thanks in advance...

Give Ian Godney a ring at Godspeed, discuss with him what you want and the type of driving you do.

Or, pop to Birtley and speak to Alyn at AS Performance.

Thanks

Heard mixed reports about Godspeed & I think that's what I have on the front from invoices & Alyn said they weren't up to much when I was there a couple of weeks back... ???

I put Ians 2 pot conversion on the back of my rb5 with grooved discs and Kevlar pads and the 335m kit on front with modified 4 pot calipers including stainless pistons and grooved discs with Ferodo 2500 pads....unreal difference, you wont be disappointed!!

Discs look smart

Lol , I guess some people would say anything to sell there own products , i'd be very surprised if Alyn did say that.

Anyway , check out our feedback on the left , click on the number under my name and you will see what the end user has to say about our service and products , along with many many people on here , we are probably the most popular brakes on Subaru's , and offer everything from mild to wild to suit all types of drivers.

On your RB5 , you can either still with the original 266mm vented discs , and we can supply you rear grooved discs with black painted centres for £115 , or you can fit the 2 pot calipers and 290mm discs from the 2001 onwards WRX , we offer grooved discs , kevlar pads and mounting bracket kit for £185 , or full kits with fully reconditioned 2 pot rear calipers for £495.

You should check the rear 1 pot calipers if you are staying standard , the sliders can become sticky and seized , so make sure its all cleaned up and regreased.

If you need any advice feel free to ring me on 01656 723060

Cheers Ian

HI
