my brakes are pretty much shot all round and rather than just replacing them im looking to upgrade. i want a decent package, ive got a bit to spend but dont want to pay out the arse for them, just looking for upgraded package not anything like racing packages or anything like that...

anyone point me in the right direction?


Cheers

cheers mate, how much am i looking at for an upgrade on all 4 corners?

i heard EBC are ****, might just be pads ive heard about though.

any idea where ill be able to buy them as a package, cba to trapse all over the net trying to piece together a set of brakes lol.

 

[Mattchew100]

lol well i have never had any trouble with ebc some people have with ebc green stuff pads buts that because the greenstuff ones are now the equavliant as the red so go for red www.ptp-ltd.co.uk do brakes and www.bansheemotorsport.co.uk, im sure you just do a google search though

 

[G4ZZL3R]

cheers dude!

what do i need to buy then is it just discs and pads?

 

[Mattchew100]

what engine is yours?

 

[G4ZZL3R]

160 lol

 

[Mattchew100]

and when u say the brakes are shot what do u mean lol, as not sure what u will need without knowing the problem

 

[G4ZZL3R]

just mean that the discs are well worn and braking power is low. not really any problem, well...apart from slowing down lol

 

[Mattchew100]

lol ok give me a minute

 

[G4ZZL3R]

lol ok mate

 

[Mattchew100]

go here

http://ptp-ltd.co.uk/shop/159_51/mg...otted.htm?SI=adc1174dac585fe1c0f0d5778662b60f

and select the 160 discs and then the pads from there 2, you can probs get them cheaper though mate so look around

Go for the mintex pads...

Green stuff are shiote

 

[Mattchew100]

i said red stuff lol! as red stuff is now the green stuff really and i have never had any probs with them

Sorry matt my bad

 

[G4ZZL3R]

looking on here... http://www.bansheemotorsport.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=23_4402_726_729


at the turbo grooved discs, and the redstuff pads, until andylew posted lol.

i had heard ebc pads were shiiiite, but im guess in the discs are good?

 

[G4ZZL3R]

ohh i see so redstuff are ok but avoid greenstuff??? lol

 

[Mattchew100]

lol well i have always had them and never had any trouble a few people have and since then they have been slated but its up to you mate, loads of peps on here have them and love them

 

[andylew0]

I had problems with the greenstuff pad breaking up and cracking so has zrvic...I changed them for mintex and tbh they are a much better pad...less fade and much more bite..But mintex comes with lot's of dust ...As for the discs my fist set did warp slightly but had them replaced been on the car for about 18 months now with no problems

 

[G4ZZL3R]

cool beanzz man.

so im thinking the turbo groved discs on the link i posted, and redstuff pads...everyone agree? lol

looks like the 2 links posted for discs are the same ones but different prices.
