While sufing the net lookong for cheapest deal on DS2500s for MY02, I came across www.raceshopper.com a US site. They've quoted me $126 for a set (4) of front pads (FCP986H) - that's £75. Now just depends on the shipping price as to whether it's worth it.

Dont forget the import tax as well, they will mark the item up in the US with a value of more than $50 and HM customs over here will then calculate your tax charge.

It then takes the price over the £100 mark.

Its your choice as the delays are a pain from the US as well.

Boss Hogg, does your MY02 have Subaru or Brembo 4pots?

FCP986 are for MY99/01 (Scooby 4's) but the £75 price compares to the FRP3067 (Brembo) uk price.
Its like the difference between the below uk prices of rear pads:
£120 (FCP 1333) MY99/00 std single pot.
£61 (FRP 3068) Brembo 2pots (MY02?)

Cheers, Stuart
