Recommend Brake pads for a Classic

Its for my daily driver - a MY97 WRX with a 4 pot front conversion, and slotted/drill 2-piece discs. What would you recommend?

Also who manufactures 2 piece discs? I think I would need to change teh discs next tiem round and since I had bought the car with the conversion ready I have no clue where to source them.

2) Dunno. Try Godspeed ?

Pagid blacks probably the best pads for road use mate. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

DBA do highly regarded 2 piece discs. I know that Extreme Scoobies sell them.

Hope they're not EBC yellowstuffs... fitted them soon after I first got mine and they were truly awful, took too long to warm up, squeaky... changed back to standard OEM pads after that.
