Default brake pads

i need some new pads all round on my 99 t reg turbo, not had the car long and been told by my local subaru garage that i have the 330mm prodrive brake upgrade on the front, anyway they quoted me roughly £300 for new front and rear pads which seems a tad expensive, is there anywhere i can get them cheaper or is it gonna cost me that much just to replace the pads??
any help appreciated.

you can certainly sort equal or better quality components for less than your £300 quote, how much depends on what your after and the style of your driving.................

I am sure we could do EBC Redstuff Ceramic pads for you, currently running 15% off RRP and free PF48 shipping.

What calipers on the fronts and are the rears standard?

the back brakes are standard and the fronts according to my local subaru garage are the 330mm prodrive upgrade,so think there 4 pot calipers.

If you think £300 is expensive, just wait till you have to replace the disks. The Alcon disks are a one piece disk/bell and cost £££.
