Mate subaru want 235 per disc for these so that seams a really good price but you don't really want to cop out on theses things. see what everyone else says.

Just been speaking to a company called XSpec Motorsport.
He offering to supply & fit race road grooved disks & pads to my MY05 Spec C for £250.
I've seen good reports about them.
Anyone any reports about them?

would have thought so. if you give them a call on the ebay number im sure they would do a package deal if you tell them what you want.

Not used these specific discs. But get most of my front 295mm discs from this chap on ebay or GGR on ebay. Perfectly fine. No problems with cracking or warping. They do get covered quickly with corrosion though - but this doesn't actually make a difference.

Here's the link to the other place I use for discs

eBay.co.uk Shop - GGR Performance Parts Direct: Brakes: Impreza 02-05 Front Brake Discs EBC STI BREMBO D1056
