Default Brake Discs

Hi Guys

Right before I ask this question I am not thick (just female ) lol, but just need to know asap the answer.

We have a WRX on a 51 plate bugeye and need some front brake discs next month, but I need to know the sizes, are all models the same size discs or not? Can someone tell me sizes if possible? We haven't needed to renew the discs since buying the car so haven't a clue when it comes to the brakes. Also can anyone recommend the best place to buy discs, we just want standard decent priced ones, not fancy expensive ones.

Thanks in advance

Ignore that about the webby, I found it on here
I called them and so far they are the cheapest so looks like we'll be using them next month.

As you are not very far away fro us,

Why not get them fitted @ Revolution

We can also service your car using genuine Subaru parts !!

Two birds with one stone lol

We'll be even closer in a couple of months time seeing as we are moving back up home.
How much do you charge for a service as hubby was going to skip it, I wasn't too keen on the idea of a DIY job, but the last time we had a service it cost us a fortune and we aren't exactly flash with cash just now seeing as we need to find new jobs and get a house plus the car seen to all within the next 3-4 months, give me a quote and I'll think about it
