Which brake pad type for MY93 240PS WRX Jap import (GC8A48D)???

Does anyone know for sure which brake pad 'silhouette' is the correct type for the above vehicle's standard 2-pot calipers?...

...Is it these (ignore the branding)?...

...Or these?...

Thanks
John

it could be both , have a look through your wheels , you can clearly see if your pads have the lugs or the cutouts on the end of them , then order them accordingly

assuming you have the original calipers fitted it is the first style.................the second shape was only fitted from 98 model year!! (unless soem one has swapped them?)
