Yes - if you have the four pot calipers with SUBARU written on them as found on the MY99-MY05 (non STI) WRX's then DP31200c is the correct part no.

Remember that number, you'll be needing some more very soon

Do yourself a favour and get Ferodo's or Pagid's

Yes has subaru written on them, cheers.

Used to have bremsport 330mm setup, but went bust and had to use ap discs that were too expensive and ferodo ds3000 pads and the pads were that bad they wrecked my alloys, i could never clean them up as had brake dust embedded in them.

Dunno if i would try ferodos again on my standard 4 pots, what are the yellow stuff ones like and do they last longer, as i was told to go for redstuffs???

Went on ebc site and dont think they do yellow stuff r pads for the 1998-2002 4 pots yet, maybe someone can prove me wrong and get me a price from somewhere as seem a better pad for higher temps etc, but i only use for road use and may be no more beneficial than red stuffs????

Aren't DS3000 track only The DS2500 are track & fast road and the DS2000 (now DSPF) are fast road. I had the DS2000 and was more than happy with them. Better than the EBC's in every respect, especially the wear rate. Currently running Mintex 1155's but aren't too impressed as they squeal like a stuck pig and are just as dirty. Been recommended to try Pagid Blue next time, but alas I sold the car today so I won't be doing that

Yeah got the pads with the setup and thought they would have been ok, but they weren't, ah well

I'd recommend the DS2500s, they do take a little bit of warming up - but not enough to cause nasty moments when they're cold if you see what I mean. I got through some Redstuffs in less than 6000 miles, and I am not a heavy braker.

From my own experience:
“I fitted a full set, both front and rear to my Subaru Impreza, prior to a trip to the Nurburgring. The pads were bedded in on the way over, approximately 450 miles. During the weekend visit I completed 39 laps, approximately 530 track miles and then another 450 miles back home. Approximate front pad wear was 2 to 2.5mm, still plenty of life left in them. The pads performed excellently on track. On the road, initial cold bite is good. After a couple of applications of the brake pedal the pads are getting to their normal operating temperature and are excellent there after.”

I take it you are on about the yellow stuff pads and not the yellow stuff R pad, as think they are different?
Im looking into getting the yellow stuff R pad
