how do you know which pads you need till you take them off??

Just looking at some pads now and they both say they will fit my car MY99 but they look different,

They look like the right ones, although both links are the same. I have a MY99 too. You should definately have 4 pot calipers like me, so they are the same.

 

oops, other one:

Subaru Impreza / Legacy Front Brake Pads - Mintex 1144 on eBay, also Brake Components, Performance Tuning Parts, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 24-Jan-08 17:11:57 GMT)

 

Thats definalty not the ones I used on my MY99.
Go with the first links you posted, muche bigger seller on ebay.
The last link has made a mistake somewhere, although is not the best description. What are non-Brembo type? 4 pot or 2 pot?

 

Cheers ordered now, might get here for sat, when i planning to do everything

 

Let us know how you get on with the pads mate.
I was advised to use the Mintex MDB 1794 by a company that i was put onto... £35 plus delivery... Better than standard pads they said

 

ive used them before on my old mondeo with drilled and grooved discs and they only lasted about 6months, but only got grooved on my scooby so time will tell
