Thanks all, appreciate the time and comments. I've looked more in to it, and I think I may send them off to Ian @ Godspeed after numerous recommendations and positive feedback. It will save me time and hassle and I can rest easy knowing they will be 100%!

I will have to check it out on YouTube to see what it entails. I've done some minor works on cars in the past so it might be within my capabilities.

Hi all, The offside front caliper on my 2004 WRX must be sticking as the brake pad is worn a lot more than the nearside pad. I am also getting the occasional squeal. I'm new to the Impreza so not got a whole lot of experience yet but I know this is a common issue. I'm thinking instead of sending off for a refurb....would it be better to buy a new set of front calipers (or newly refurbished) and then sell my current set to make up the difference? Or, if anyone can recommend otherwise please let me know. All advice will be appreciated! Thanks, R

Thanks for the reply Tidgy. I've only just spotted the Impreza subforum. I imagine I'm better off posting in there. Any chance this topic can be moved over to there with the help of a moderator?

Good morning all, As a new owner I have a load of questions to ask but will start off with the most important for now as the front pads are due a change. The brake feel is very different in this car from the other 2 I own. Harder pedal with a lot less travel. Is this to do with the level of servo assistance or just how the Impreza is set up? They have to be worked quite hard in my opinion. It could be that I am coming from slightly newer more comfort focused cars (06' E90 325i and 07' Audi TT) and the contrast is noticeable. The seller also mentioned Subaru used harder pads

Hi all, Very excited to say I now own a 04' Impreza WRX. Drove 3 hours to collect, well worth it due to condition, mileage and history. It has the Prodrive exhaust fitted, as well as a full Alpine sound system supplied and fitted by Subaru, after the original owner from new complained of the drop in sound quality! The rest is completely original. Looking forward to learning more about ownership, servicing and maintenance through the forums. R
