Default What should i do about my Breaks

Hey Guys Wonder if you can help a complete newbie.

I've just bought my first scooby, Blobeye WRX 260BHP

Now the question is what breaks should i change to? I'm on a tight budget as i've obviously just bought the car.

Wheels are 18" Oz supperleggera's so should be plenty of room.

Any advice would be helpful.

Hello mate welcome to the wonderful world Subaru's, when you say breaks assuming you mean brakes and do you want new calipers or just uprated discs and pads.

Another vote for Ian at Godspeed.

He will dish out free advice, then sell you decent kit at a decent price with great aftersales.

Are you wanting to go with bigger discs and calipers or just replace the discs/pads with better performing ones?
