brake pad help
hi, looking for some help with front pads for my 2004 wrx. bought some and had them delivered, car jacked up and wheel off... and they're the wrong ones. Need the right ones asap but not looking to spend a fortune as want to change all discs and pads in a few months, so just looking for reasonable pads to do me until then. Problem is i can seem to find any ANYWHERE that match these....
current pads were working ok but one has worn right down to nothing while the other one has almost no wear...why? wondering if the pad has fallen off one side...? (unsure if this can happen - excuse my lack of technical knowledge, i am a woman lol)
prodrive calipers, discs are measuring 330mm - not standard?
pics...
any help greatly appreciated guys!!
thanks, steph

Those Prodrive calipers are not standard WRX fitment. Standard pads look like this

I'd try contacting someone like Ian Godney at Godspeed or Alyn at AS Performance.
Just looked on Ian's site, the pads like you took out are the Prodrive Alcon brake upgrade. He has them listed on his site.

I'd ring him tomorrow, he knows his stuff :-)

Are they decent enough for a few months use? Sounds great if so. Will ring you tomorrow. Thanks!
