Default HELP HELP!!! EBC Grooved + redstuff for 02 STi

In need of some front pads soon, but there is a tiny lip on the front discs too. The cars only done 21k.

Not too amused with OEM prices ive found discs and pads for my brembos for £280 the lot!!

Anyone here have this setup? any good? any opinions as to what i should be going for? Want something with more bite and fade resistance than the OEM kit that doesnt require me selling a leg to afford!!

cheers

I wouldn't just replace the disks for the sake of it as they aren't cheap. A small lip is normal as they wear. I had my 30k service a couple of weeks back on my 03 sti, they said my disks will need changing at next pad change and mine have a massive lip on them.
