I need some replacement rear discs and pads.

Does anyone have any recommendations.

Where's the cheapest place for OEM stuff?

Godspeed do 'em. £150-ish, vented, grooved and nickle-plated as I recall. I seem to remember Ian also made a prototype with an alloy bell, which sounds rather nice so long as you don't use the handbrake for slowing down after noticing a police car in your mirror

Alloy bells help to dissipate heat generated in the discs, keeping the discs and the wheel bearings much cooler.

I'll take em Steve.

and those rear discs - are they vented? Will they fit my MY99?

I'm not going to NBO - but I'm sure someone could meet up with you for me. I'll take em if they fit.

my email is slh@orange.net

BURR.
These disks are vented and were ordered as for a MY 99 (I didn't realise Type R rears were bigger).

They come with a blue anodized coating (This comes off after first brake application!!)leaving blue hub.
Dia 268 mm

Will be at NBO on sunday STI V Type-R ltd FMIC Rollcage red Sparco seats

Will have username on rear side windows

( Please NO practical jokes from your friends......)

No Probs, u just need to check your current pads, as Chrome had a bit of a problem with Pads he got, these are ok for my car, and according to Halfords they are for 98 on

these ones have a tab on either end
