YOu could do a lot worse than ring Alyn at ASPerformance, on 0191, 410 3770..... thats from memory, i hope it's right, tell him how you drive, and he'll tell you what the right pad for your use is..!! and then if you're early enough, you'll have them the next day!!

Mention Scoobynet to him aswell.....

As mentioned they are standard 4 pot calipers with 294mm discs but the car has STi 17" wheels fitted.

Nice thing about those wheels is that if you found some secondhand STi calipers and discs they'd fit straight on.
