New brakes for my Legacy ST Spec B
I am not 100% happy with the brakes on my legacy ST Spec B so have decided I need to look into changing them.Has anyone got any ideas as what would suit the Spec B the best or any experience of changing theirs? Photos would be much appreciated.
thanks in advance for any info

Brakes are weak on our cars.
Best bet is to stick on a pair of DBA discs with ferrodo DS2500 pads, braided hoses and some DOT 5.1 fluid, that will make a huge difference.
JW Racing used to sell those discs and pads, not sure if they still do or if there's another UK supplier.
Looks like TSL also sell them now, plus a few others when I googled for them.
Give Godspeed and Hispec a wide berth, both well known for giving people the run around.

M8, first stop would be pads, lines and fluid IMHO. The hardware is pretty good in general, those are fairly decent, thick discs, but the lines are avg at best IMHO. As are the pads.
There are a few options when it comes to discs now as well, so take a squiz at DBA if that is your thing. Otherwise it is the usual suspects - all the BBKs bolt on to the hubs, your next challenge is wheels.
