Question Need all new disks, is it worth upgrading?

I need disks and pads all round (UK MY98).

Not sure what this is gonna cost but I was wondering if I should take the opportunity to throw away the crappy rubbish pots and get some better calipers too?

What sort of choices do I have and is there going to but a lot of difference or should I save the cash and replace OEM for OEM?

I'm on the standard 16" rims although I may go up one size to 17", no plans for huge rims in the future though...

cheers

I have MY98 too, upgraded to subaru 4 pots front with oe discs and pagid pads, great improvement on the old 2 pots that barely stopped the car.
Rear, I have new age 2pots and discs with Dyney adaptor brackets with standard pads. Don't think the old sliding calipers worked

Guesstimate cost,
4 pots.. £200 +
Disc £100
Pads circa £110
Braided hoses £ 50 ?

Rear 2pots £30 ebay
Discs £100
Adaptor brackets £120 I think

Well worth it In my opinion
