Hi Y'all,

One for the techy mob amongst you....

I've got a late 97/98 STi V4 Type R...I had it serviced the other week, and was told that all my brake discs were warped...Guess that explained the cars recent tendency to slew across the road under fairly heavy braking!

Anyway - Fronts aren't a problem to source...

But rear's - Well; That's another story!

Apparently it has the ultra rare Big (296mm) and Vented discs...Only used by Subaru for 9 months....And possibly a part mainly fitted to the Rally car's...

Has anyone had any experience of replacing these items?

Were they easy to come by?

Or are they of the same ilk as bits for the grey 22B's, whereby all parts are hand rolled on the thighs of Geisha's, and transported to the UK by carrier dove? (i.e It'll need to come from Japan and might take a while!)


Cheers!

Ross.

Ross they should be the same as any other type rs rear discs.

I would recommend ringing scoobysport, or mailing me if that doesnt work.

It is possible to get hold of these bits if you need em so dont worry.

Cheers Adam,

Although the guy who services my car has Prodrive links, & sees a lot of Type R's reckons that my rears are completely different to the norm...Hmmm...I'll need to know for sure b4 I order up new discs...I'll double check....

Thanks again,

Ross
