Does that front disc clean up during driving? As it looks like its not getting a lot of use, caliper might have stuck pistons?

It doesn't feel like it's not working but im due to replace them soon anyway. Cpuld anyone recommend any. Preferably an upgrade, not to keen on the standard setup. Ive been looking at upgrading to maybe sti brakes.

Any ideas or opinions?

Plenty of options out there but looking at the condition of that tarox disc, i'd think you'd get a big improvement by just checking the pistons move freely and putting a set of new fast road discs/pads on there....
