Thanks everyone.

I think I am going to just do the front this time and see how it goes.

But I am having trouble finding the correct pads for the front subaru 4 pots...

all I can find is CARBOTECH Bobcat from boxer4racing. (good pads for mostly street and very light track use?)

Anybody knows the part # for Porterfield, Hawk, axxis ultimate ...etc?

 

Also, were do you guys buy ATE superblue and how much do I need?

 

got any more information on that? I'm curious to read up on it.

thanks,

You should be able to pick it up at your local autoparts store...that's where I got mine. There's only one size can, and it's good enough for almost two brake fluid changes.

 

+1 me too.

If anyone needs Porterfield brake info, email 'orders@speedtoys.com' with your make/model and questions.

 

-STi OEM Brembo's
-Goodridge Stainless Steel brake lines
-ATE Super Blue fluid
-Porterfield R4-S street/track pads

Good for ~2:05's at Sears Point with no fade... I'm not as hard as some on the brakes, but I'm still stopping from 100+ on the straights to 30-40 twice a lap...

 

Anybody ever try air duct lines from the front of the car back to the brake calipers to cool it quicker? Is it very affective?

 

where do you hit 100 to go to 30 or 40 at t-hill?

perhaps turn 10? only one i can think of, i know i hit about 110 or so through 9 to 10, but prolly go through turn 10 at 50 or more...



edit* NEVERMIND< thought you said t-hill, not sears :P

 

04 STI...35K miles....

Hawk HPS Front/Rear
StopTech SS lines Front/Rear
Motul RBF-600 synthetic...

Feel is much better...this is my daily driver so I wanted a Pad that would be quiet, minimal dust, and trackable...

So far so good...these pads are living up to what they said they would handle...

Very Happy...
