Thumbs up

I've been using Black Diamond discs for quite a while, drilled and grooved - performance is good and they won't break the bank.

As for pads, I've used Pagid, Mintex and Ferodo - Pagid were best but very expensive, Mintex were good but dusty ( cheap too ), but Ferodo best all round for price/performance.

If you haven't already upgraded to 4 pots from MY99 onwards, I would advise you get hold of some off the 'For Sale' forum, then buy discs and pads for those, you'll notice the improvement !

Hope this helps,

T

Speak to ScoobyKev he has some Prodrive 330mm discs that he would take offers on i think. Give him a shout.

I will be buying the GodSpeed 335mm kit for my car shortly[ur] http://www.godspeedbrakes.fsnet.co.uk/frameset.htm[/url] and thats £595 as opposed to £1600 for the AP setup - also depends if your going to do track days as well????

Godspeed also does replacement disks (vented & grooved, front & rear) in OE sizes, so you don't have to fit larger disks.
