Question

I have recently aquired a pair of 2pot calipers with part worn greenstuff pads to go on my na Legacy, this is an upgrade in its own right over the existing single pot system.

I was thinking of replacing my existing discs with a pair of Black Diamond grooved discs for approx. £130. I have also found a 'pagid 2pot upgrade kit' in the scooby shop for around £200. Which is the better buy, is the pagid woth the extra money bearing in mind I have a set of fitting pads?

The car is standard but is heavy.

Am I correct in understanding that ebc turbogrove dics and greenstuff pads in no better than the standard fitment?

Also am I right in assuming that braided impreza hoses will fit?

Cheers
anthony

no offence, but the "ebc" pads are not up to a lot of abuse or even normal use!!(IMO)......in fact, we have a set, left over from testing, you can have that have been on a car for less than 1000miles if you're interested!!
normal recomend for this caliper is either Pagid's or Ferodo ds2500pads.......can source discs to suit also!!
