I think EVO 3 front pads are the same on the FTO, not sure with the rear.

i went in there the other day to get a 2.5'' cat gasket for a friend, and the dickhead needed a ruler to see what size i was after, instead of reading the packaging, or looking up the part number. i'm standing there in awe, repeatedly saying '2.5", 2.5", and he's saying 'from the inside or outside?'
huh?

Some times you get lucky, some time you dont with those types of stores. Im on a first name basis with the guys at my local Auto One & they're a great help.

I think just about every engine part Im after we look up the listing for the HJ Galant (cause the FTO aint listed) and all but one of those parts has worked. The only thing that didnt was an ECU engine temp sender unit.... and they refunded me no question 8)

As Bigpitty mentions the front pads are common to the EVO III (also the same as EVO II) and the rears are common to stack of Mitsi's including the Colt & Carisma.
