Default Need an urgent response please

With refrence my front brakes:

Just stripped them out to find they are completely knackered, pistons seized, seals damaged, pads crumbled, disc's tearing themselves apart...they are shot beyond belief

So i thought i may aswell upgrade to the 4 pots whilst its in bits, but i have a question.....

Has anyone bought and used these calipers below
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-IMP...item35bf032a9f
And are they good value for money v's the OEM 4 pots, after all the only visible difference i see is the OEM's are stamped with subaru whilst these are stamped with WRX PRO.

Any advice greatly appreciated soon, as the car is off the road now pending advice

Hi
We have been selling these calipers for a while now and they are good , don't forget you will also need discs to go with them , we offer them as a complete package with kevlar sport pads and our grooved discs with black painted centres for £299

http://66.7.200.85/~godspeed/product.php?id_product=138

In the ebay link you are only getting standard motor factor pads , and they won't take much abuse when driving spiritedly , at least if you fit the full kit from us it will work a lot better than standard discs and pads.

We have these in stock for a next day delivery , we take paypal or card payments

Cheers Ian

Thanks for the reply Ian...

I have some disc's on my watch list and wanted to go drilled/dimpled & grooved to match the rears ive just put on, do you do those disc's too ?

No we don't offer drilled discs anymore as the pads available now can generate a lot more heat they are too unreliable and can crack around the holes with spirited driving
