I assume you've got 4-pots on the front

The accepted wisdom is that any uprated pad will need better disks - standard ones will just warp.

Try Ferodo DSL 4003 with some grey iron grooved disks from TSL Motorsport (Keyworth nr Nottingham)

will cost you around £400 inc VAT

worked a treat on my B4 - & lasted the course around Cadwell.

Question

You've probably all read this before but...

98 WRX STi4 needs new front discs and pads. Tried Greens with standard disks, nothing sparkling though. Any 'affordable'ie cheap recomendations and contacts appreciated. Fast road, occasional track days.


Thanks

Cool

Phil why not try Prodrive Group N disks and mintex 1144 pads we use them and they are the dogs dangles for stopping on a buget

The disks have curved vanes for better cooling and are left and right handed they are £97.41 each + vat and the pads are about £53.00 set + vat and they should take the odd battering on a track day as we know some people that use them for ralling and they seem to last a long time under rally conditions.
