My 1997 Sti Type r needs pads and discs ,the calipers are sliding single pots.
Can somebody give me info on which pads and discs will,will the standard pads be ok.
I know the discs are 290mm will the newage rear discs fit.
Thanks in advance.

 

if you have the sliding calipers fitted then the pre'98 pads will fit just the same however the rear discs are a 'one-off' fitment as they are only a solid disc but 290mm with 190mm h/brake...............

only genuine Subaru i'm afraid

Thanks Alyn,also will UK sti wheelbearings fit because the diff on the newage stis is R180.Ima hoping of putting Blue print ones on.

 

Try Ian @ Godspeed as i've just ordered a set of rears for my 98 STi Type R from him.

Decent price and excellent service.

Cheers

Thanks Joel for the reply ,from what i have found out the discs on 98 model were vented and 290mm, the ones on mine are 290mm with solid discs.
I did ring Godspped unfortunately he doesnt have them, then i tried Davis @API he has them for 60-70 quid so hopefullyi will be ordering from him.
