Mine was on its 4th set after 34000 miles. I'm hoping these will last longer though! :?

Same pads as the Evo VII and VIII's. If the dealer can't find the Scoobie STi in his book see if he has Evo's.

> EVOS have Red Stuff ???

No of course not!!! Sorry if it read like that, that was not what I meant at all.

What I meant was that the Brembo calipers are the same calipers as the Evo's. So when you go into your Pagid RS4-2-1 dealer or your Ferodo DS2500 dealer you can say I want some pads for a WR1 and if he can't find that listed in his book he can look up in his book which pads to sell for the Evo's.

If you go to an EBC red stuff dealer he will only have Saxo or Pogo 106 in his book anyway....... Oh sorry that was a bit bitter. I've heard the new red stuff ceramic are meant to be OK but never tried them myself.

Personally I'd recomend Pagid RS4-2-1 but they are a bit pricey.
