Hey guys,

Rotors and pads will need doing on the 99 GC8 soon and wanting some opinions (preferably good ones ) about some good bang for your buck options.

I'm not after race quality. This is for stopping my daily drive and not having shudder through the wheel. Standard will probably be double the price of after market and if getting a set of slotted "DBA's with some bendix ultimates" is the consensus then I'm happy to do that.

Not having a Subaru background please speak noob

I would send a message to Greg at GSL rally sport. He always helped me out with cheap brakes. Plus he is a vendor on here and will destroy the prices of repco.

No point getting slotted if you are not doing track work. Just get some some stockers from dba.

@hazza I got my quote today. $380 for rotors and pads all round or halve it for just fronts. This was for daily drive and not street/track etc

Good price so I'll grab them in a few weeks.
