Aftermarket Brake Pads for 07 STi Limited

MarkF · 06-27-2008, 07:08 AM

Newbie here - Limited #387 - I'm trying to find aftermarket pads for the Limited. I'm told the Limited has different pads then the stock STi. Can someone direct me to a few on-line store where i can reliably get these pads. I'm very low on pads and need them asap.

Thanks

I recommend two things.

1) Use the search button. Just browsing the braking forum would give you a good idea where to go.

2) The Newbie Forum is for introductions. Technically specific inquiries, like yours, belong in the technical forums. In this case, the Braking forum. Thread moved.

I don't know where you got your info from, but the pads are the same. I'm running the Ferodo 2500 front and rear on mine.

+1 on Searching

+1 on Ferrodo 2500's. I have had them for a year and love em.

I've purchased brake components from WRXBrakes.com (iwsti.com vendor) and been quite happy with the service and products.

I'd say Hawk HPS, or Porterfield R4S. Both are equal in stopping power in my opinion. The Hawk's are quieter though, and don't give off as much dust. The HPS is a good street pad, but if you ever had a craving for autocross, they'd work great.

+ eleventy billion. Ken at wrxbrakes is awesome. Let him know what you want and he will not steer you wrong. Plus he ships right away and is always available to talk brakes.

I like the Hawk HP+ for the street/track. It's not expensive and after 3 sets so far, no complaints. G'luck!
