Spaceman Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 As above really going to try by calipers but need to find out rough costs for discs and pads greig are the back discs and pads the same for the sti and the wrx on the newage? Cheers Greig
wrxmania Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Rough cost of a front set of pads and discs for Brembo's would be £280 - £300 - something like DS2500 pads, or Pagid RS 4.2.1 - slightly cheaper for EBC Red Stuff with discs. The back brake set up on a newage STI and WRX are totally different down to the hubs. The back brakes on a WRX are Subaru 2 pots and on an STI they are Brembo's. Brian.
scooby222 Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 thats a good deal your getting there! ds2500 pads for newage brembos are 140 and youl be about 200 for a pair of discs- considerably more if you go to the stealers. they are great though
wrxmania Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 I am sure companies such as AS Performance can do these pads for around the £105 - £110 mark and a set of discs for £170.
scooby222 Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 maybe i didnt haggle enough! AS quoted me 144 plus postage for mine,though i didnt get a price for discs but most other places are about 170 per disc for the an 05 sti. my local garage was able to get oe pads for £100, half the price my dealer wanted! either way its still a good cost efficient upgrade,i put mintex grooved discs and uprated pads with braided brake lines on my classic and they were still nowhere near the power of the brembos
