I HAVE A 99 IMPREZA-L WAGON--THAT COULD USE BETTER BRAKES. COULD ANYONE TELL ME WHAT OEM BRAKES WILL FIT? OR AFTERMARKE GOODIES TOO. I HAVE THE 15 INCH ALUNIMUM WHEELS. ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. TOM

 

A set of slotted discs and the Hawk HPS-F pads will make an improvement.

 

What exactly is it that you don't like about your current brake set-up? If we understand the problem, we may be able to make recommendations that won't end up costing you lots of money. Do you plan to track the car? Autocross? Just agressive street driving? Is aesthetics playing a part in this? Do you plan to swap from 15" to 17' (or larger) wheels?

 

All I'm doing with the 99 impresa L wagon is agressive street driving-no racing-any help will be appreciated. THANKS--TOM

 

Sounds like you could get by with a higher performance set of pads and, if you like a slightly firmer pedal, a set of stainless steel covered Teflon brake lines. The Axxis Ultimate pads are a good choice as are the StopTech lines. You should also follow the proper bedding-in procedure to get the most out of your new pads: http://www.zeckhausen.com/bedding_in_brakes.htm

Unless your original rotors are worn to their minimum thickness (or near it) there's no reason to "upgrade" them with aftermarket slotted or drilled rotors.
