Default Which Brakes?

Any recommendations - I am after new front discs and pads for WRX PPP (2004) - I like the aesthetics of 'grilled and grooved' - any ideas?

Dunno about the discs, but you want either Pagid Black or Ferrodo 2500 pads mate.

Godspeed are very competitively priced, but Ian struggles to keep up with demand. Id ask for a firm delivery date to avoid any misunderstandings.

don;'t get Ferrodo, get Mintex 1166, well better I feel. Did not think DS2500 were all that to be honest.

Grilled , sorry grooved and drilled () discs look nicer , but if you drive hard or do track days , then the discs can end up cracking around the holes , this can happen to any make of drilled disc.

I can supply you grooved , or grooved and drilled discs , along with Mintex or Ferodo pads NEXT DAY for £200. and the discs come with a 12 month guarantee against warping even if you do trackdays

Cheers Ian
