Brake Question

[-Jason-]

So need brakes on the front of the cup and unsure what to do however I am aware I I'll get mixed opinions.

Option 1 brembo max with red/yellowstuff pads around £150

Option 2 ebc discs with red/yellowstuff pads around £160

Or this combo from ktec with the best pads £160 again

Or any other options you would suggest.

Don't really want to spend £100+ on pads alone as have other work to do on the car aswell just after a general upgrade for road and maybe 2 track days a year.

Brembo HC's and DS2500 for £160 without any discount applied.

 

[mr.valver]

Or swap the pads for Mintex M1144's if your trying to keep costs down.

 

[-Jason-]

And advantage of brembo hc over max?

 

[mr.valver]

Just stick to HC's.

 

[mr.valver]

HERE and HERE

I'm sure I have had it drilled into me that grooved discs are better that's all however hc seem to get good reviews on here.

 

[mr.valver]

Everyone uses the HC's and DS2500 setup, I've got the HC's but Mintex M1155 pads, once there warm it's STOPS.

 

[-Jason-]

Will go for the hc and 2500 then I think as don't want to do a track day to find the pads die.

Thanks for the help.

 

[mr.valver]

Don't forget is your using auto-nation, discount code cliosport11. This will only work once your registered.

 

[-Jason-]

Ok I will do.

 

[-Jason-]

Ordered now any idea on delivery time?

 

[mr.valver]

Mine came within 24/48 hours. Any long and he will ring you and explain.

That's how I ended up with M1155's, M1144's I ordered was on back order, so give me a free upgrade. Almost twice the price of the original order.

 

[-Jason-]

I had never heard of the company before seem good though.

 

[fleck]

Got ebc bluestuff and brembo hc's on mine. Performed really well on track although im considering upgrading to wilwood 4 pots.

 

[-Jason-]

4pots are overkill on a Clio unless you have boost or bodies imo

 

[mr.valver]

Even with boost and bodies its OTT.

You will be impressed with your new setup.

Anybody have these? I was thinking of getting the front and back done.

 

[mr.valver]

Again, just roll with HC's and either genuine pads or DS2500/M1144s.

 

[devfuse]

ok thanks, cheap on auto site

 

[Pete@Auto-Nation]

Only a PM away here if you want any help.
Thanks.

Whats the difference between DS2500 and DS3000??? Apart from £30??

Cheers

I'm considering yellow stuff or black diamond predators they both have a good write up. It seems ds2500 are abit much for road driving.
