Default Need Brake Pads All Round on 54 STi?

I need new pads all round on my 54 plate WRX STi, not sure if they are currently fitted with Brembo's..........i take it i dont have to get Brembo pads and other brands will fit?, as Gold Brembo brake callipers are installed as on all STi's?

I dont intend to do any track days, and im easy on the brakes, had my Civic Type R for 7 years and only changed to pads once in that time. What alternatived do i have?, brembo pads all round will be approx £200 or though this isnt a massive amount of money if i can find a good cheaper alternative then id go with that, as this month have my insurance (£850) and shed load of other bills. Suggestions please

Ok ill look up Ian Godney.

On a side note are the pads straight forward to fit?, have fitted the pads on my Civic Type R, so are they more difficult on an WRX Sti? One thing i will come up against is prising apart the callpiers so the new pads with fit over the brake disc, what the best way to open up the callipers?

Looked on Godspeedbrakes site, and the Kevlar pads seem a good price and seem to be what im after.

Noticed that these Kevlar pads are a fair bit cheaper on the Aztec Performance site with front and rears being the same price at £60!!!...

FRONT
REAR

Are these the same as the pads on godspeed??, as or though Ian has the rears at £5 cheaper his fronts are over £80!.....

FRONT
REAR

just want to make sure these are indeed the same pads on both sites??

Different pads, different prices.

Hi , er , lettuce , cool name lol
The offer we have includes next day delivery , so £99 all in for front and rear Kevlar sport pads , we have been selling these pads for ages , a lot longer than anyone else , with very good feedback , they are a very good all round mild fast road pad , not suitable for track days , but for every day drivers , who like to give to give it stick now and again they are ideal.
There are many different makes of performance pads , ranging from mild to wild , we find these suitable for about 90% of our customers , we would only recommend something else if they were very hard road drivers or were looking to do track days
Hope this helps
Cheers Ian
