Brake repairs on Impreza

Recommended Posts

Merry Christmas everyone, new member to Club Sub, so please let me know if I\'m doing anything wrong.

So I just bought a \'96 Impreza HX-20s, the brakes were squeaking a bit, so I took it down to Magoo and got a free brake check done. I was told that the front pads, front discs, and rear shoes all needed replacing, as well as machining on the rear drums. I was quoted for $789 (the guy said he\'d charge me 3 hours labour although it\'d probably take longer) for the whole thing. This is my first car so I have no idea how much these things cost, but does this sound reasonable? Would I be able to get it done cheaper anywhere else? Cheers

yeah thats a bout going rate for that lot to get done . hes been honest and fair with you . any home mechanic could do new disks and pads on the front in bout an hour . and for under 300 in parts . for the rear just find someone wrecking anything with rear disks and bolt he whole lot on for like $100

if its got drums on the rear its going to have different hubs and also different shocks so its not a clean and easy job

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
