We used (Asura's idea) a 3/8" socket drive with extension. THe exention let us push it in which for some unknown reason, you need to do.

I thought the disks were optional equipment.

Well I believe the WRX is the first Impreza that has 4 wheel disk brakes. I've always wondered why they kept using rear drums.

Put the street pads (stock) back yesterday. Worked like a charm. Thanks

BTW the Panther Pluses made a big difference at Laguna!

The Panther's show little wear even though I was mashing hard. 100 miles of laps (no one passed me!), hard mashing and still look great.

No cracking either.

I don't think they are as rotor friendly as the R4S. I think they stop better, and that is what matters the most.
