Try Rossini, from CarPartsDirect or EBC Turbo Groove, they only recently started covering the V6 Galant, however I am unsure about the VR4.

National Brakes might be the option for you though, am sure you get discount through the club too

Rossini (http://www.carparts-direct.co.uk/catalogues/rossini_brake_discs.cfm)
EBC (http://www.performancebrakes.co.uk) search for Galant
Not too sure on the nationals, but thats the link. National (http://www.national-auto.co.uk/brakeframes.html)

EVO IV brake discs fit if memory serves.

Try here (http://www.ebcbrakesdirect.com/car/parts_disc.asp?part=disc&make=MITSUBISHI&model=Evo+4&year=2+%2895%2D98%29) or here (http://www.brakes4u.co.uk/products.asp?id=9623).

Probably around £120 for front discs.

thinking of changing mine as well , , 1998 v6 auto 2500cc
however, when i look for prices it always has 14" wheels in brackets
ive noticed this on a few sites now , , , mine has 15" wheels, which i believe are standard
should i ignore the 14" bit and order anyway or what ?

sorry to hijack but it saves a new thread ;)

That may mean you need 14" wheels to clear the discs. If so, you'd be fine with 15" wheels. As long as the discs fit, I don't think you'll have any trouble.
