scoobysailor Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 After my front calipers getting progressively worse and finally binding on, resulting in my pads being worn into wedges and generally being run down all round, I decided to take the plung and get a refurbished set from Godspeed. They arrived today. I'm well impressed with them, the pictures don't do them justice. Just need to fit them now..... Link to comment
the squiggle Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Any plans to change the colouring of the lettering? Link to comment
scoobysailor Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 Aye, I think I will get some white lettering to match my wheels before they get fitted. Link to comment
paul555sti Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Looking good, i think the white lettering would finish them off nicely. I just ordered new discs and pads from Ian today. Link to comment
StrikE Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Very nice shiney brake there Did you get new discs too? Link to comment
scouk Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Nice! Got the front calipers on mine repalced by godspeed last year.. Got the white radiator paint and a thin brush out for the lettering then a layer of lacquer on the top... Must give them a good clean next time the wheels are off Link to comment

scoobysailor Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 (edited) Very nice shiney brake there Did you get new discs too? Yes, I've just had some Tarox sport Japan discs and Mintex extreme pads fitted. It was when the old ones came off that I saw how bad they were, the brakes were freed up then but they've got steadily worse since then. Just ordered the decals for them; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Subaru-WRC-STI-rally...ticker-white-x5 Edited March 26, 2009 by scoobysailor Link to comment
