I found my ds2500s at Perth Brake Parts for $290 but aparently if you mention being a P-wrx member it means sumthing as it should.

I changed over to dba 650's aswel as the ds2500's while i was at it and the stock rotor/ferodo formulars fail in comparrison. Need a little heat to stop light brake squeel but other then that, overly impressed even though i got to drive it around for about 5 hours before i flew back out for a 5 week stint in Hedland

Brakes are an easy job, theres a DIY brake thread in the DIY section. Good luck

okay ... to be honest ... the ebc's arent to bad... had the red ceramics on the front and they probably are a bit to harsh for the stock rotots. the rears are fine though. obviously a bit of dust but nothing to complain about.

however my rotors are pretty chewed now so replacing it all, going with dba650s and bendix ultimates.

dont think you'll fit air impact gun around the brakes.. too tight.. go the breaker bar and have what Tuna mentioned above... some CRC might help?
