Not too impressed with the standard pads in the front Brembo's of my STi7.
Does anyone have any recommendations for up-grading.

I changed to Mintex for the Brembos on the EVO6 last year, and they were fantastic like that.
Are they available for the STi7?

Thanks for the help
David

We stock Pagid RS42-1 for the STi7. Both fronts and rears.

They are an improvement offering better friction and higher operating temps but the pad knock off problem is still there.

Both TSL and FPC have the DS2500s available (front and rear) for the Brembo calipers.

I fitted Pete's recommendation at Scoobysport in August (front pads only) to my STI7.

Braking performance is completely transformed, much much better than OE pads, more stopping power and no fade (fast road use).

I was considering upgraded front discs (drilled/grooved) to improve braking performance but I am so impressed with the Pagids I don't think I need to bother with the discs now (well not until I wear them out anyway).
