Default V3 STi Brake Uprgarde?

Done a track day at the weekend in my Scoob and the standard brakes really did struggle - esp' towards the end of the day.

So, looking to improve them, but was wondering what the best options are? Don't want to spend huge amounts of money and they going to fit under my 16" alloys, so a good fast road disc and pad.

Anyone got a recommended set-up on their Impreza? EBC/Pagid/Redstuff?

I had oe disc's and pads on my V3 STi only used for fast road not track but they were pants and struggled when they got hot. I uprated them with Godspeed grooved discs and Kevlar pads and they've been really good.

For track you will need better pads though.

Thanks for replys.

I only do one or two track days a year in it.

Anyone used Ferodo DS2500's? RCM suggested EBC discs and Pagid pads...

You won't go wrong with godspeed, i'd get him to chuck in a caliper refirb kit as well, then get yourself a braided hoses and a brake servo brace, then you will be good to go.
