Default Brakes

I have a 2005 wrx and I am thinking about upgrading the brakes .
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to put ceramic pads in my existing brake calipers and how much would it cost .

Just to let anyone know I found a place that sells Goodyear Eagle F1 for £89 each, fully fitted with VAT it's the cheapest in Kent I think!!! .

I've recently put some Pagid RS4.2.1's on my wrx 03 and the difference is impressive. Got them on next day delivery from Alyn at ASPerformance. Not a bad price either. I'd had the pads recommended to me by a variety of sources. Take a look here for even more info: http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=487426

If you fit EBC Reds be prepared to be fitting some again in a few months time. They wear very quickly Ferodo DS2000 are just as good and last much better. Pagid RS4.2.1 are very respected, but I haven't tried them yet, the same with Mintex 1144/1155.
