Default MY97 Version 3 STI brakes

Can someone help me please...
I am planning on changing my brakes on my Version 3 STI as the are pretty worn. Have been looking on Camskill's website, but was hoping someone will be able to tell me which pads and discs I need please

How much you looking to spend?
I've just replaced mine with these:

Impreza 98- Front Brake Discs & Pads Turbo 4pot ggs387p on eBay, also, Subaru, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 10-Feb-08 11:00:26 GMT)

Had them before. For road use they are excellent, no fade and great feel.
And, a bargin price!
Change the brake fluid at the same time and the difference will very noticable.

No need to spend mega bucks for road use.

Sorry can't open ebay stuff at work - access denied

How much did you get them for off ebay? Is it just for the front or can you get the rear as well?

I can get new shoes, EBC front and rear pads and standard discs from Camskill for under £300 but need to know what size etc.

Front discs and pads. £70 DELIVERED!
They are pattern parts, but bl*ody good quality from Graham Goode Racing.

Don't buy ebc uprated stuff as it cack and will last 4 minutes.
Your disc size is 294mm. Just say subaru 4pots and they should know what you're talking about. If they don't, demand to speak to someone who knows what they are talking about.

So have I got 4pots then? Didn't know whether they were 4 or 2?
Have they got rear discs and pads on there as well?
Cheers

4 pots yes. (4 piston per caliper).
They do sell rear discs, though a bit more expensive. You'll have 266mm vented rears, same as mine!

OK so 294mm vented front, 266mm vented rear.
Without the EBC stuff I can get shoes, pads and discs all round for £200 from Camskill but will have a look at your ebay link when I get home

cheers for your help
ps nice scooby by the way
