Hi,

Dont quite have the money for the 4 pots as yet...

So does anyone in the know remommend any in particlar, just discs and pads...

what about EBC, black diamond is it right that i should only run the red stuff pads up front...?? has anyone got any prices e.t.c and are the WRX brakes the same as the equivalent uk model i.e a MY95 UK turbo......

Any help would be great..

Hi, dont put redstuff on the front as they are designed to wear very rapidly at v.h.temps which you wont get consistetly on the road.I,m not connected in anyway or form with E.B.C.

I put EBC greenstuff pads and new disks in my wrx ra (2 pot) until I have enough cash to get an AP 6 pot kit.
They do need to warm up and they are never going to be the best but I found them ok in the short term, didnt even make that much mess on my alloys either, which has suprised me reading previous threads !! They are a reasonable improvment over the std ones though but I havnt tracked them as it will probably eat them in one session.
