Yeah that sounds a good combination fella, I looked at them discs and they get good reviews the subaru boys seem to rate them highly and everyone knows how good them ds2500 pads are so should be night and day over standard. Don't think you will disappointed with them.
By the way, Thanking you personally for the advice on suspension, few months in and the ride is fantastic!! Thanks again

No probs at all glad your happy with the set up, sounds like your doing a refresh on the car with suspension brakes, steering wheel and door cards takes time and cash but these cars are worth it. If you put mk1 leon leather door cards on Facebook market place there is a woman selling leather door cards for 20 bit of a clean be spot on. I had same issue with the cloth cards and its alot of work to refurb I bought leathers and they look great.

Cheers, that link didn't work. Would you mind sending again.
Yes doing a refresh, it's debaging now, followed by alloy refurb, brakes and interior refresh. Considering a stage 1 map also as I'm led to believe it's a great subtle map for these
