Whatever you can afford.

They are both good pads.

Depends what you want out of them. Just bought a set of greenstuff just a minute ago from yozzasport £56 p+p. I drive loads of backroads so been told they are pretty good.

 

[Fred@BTM]

depends if you drive like Jean Ragnotti?

Green stuff - OE upgrade, better than stock, good for road use

Ds2500 - can handle higher heat loads, good for Fast road/light track work

Ive just been looking on your website think i wm gonna go for the green stuff pads dont need any super duper ones i dont go on track or anything i will order them later on.

Fred can you give me some info on shockers aswell ? car has been handling a bit dodgy back end is a bit all over the place i have wider tyres on which is some of the problem but the shocker has burst on the drivers side rear . Can you recommend any decent ones?

 

[Fred@BTM]

depends on ££££ (unfortunatley)

you can go for koni's at between £300-£400 but i have a new shock coming in shortly, i'll release details soonish

but it all depends on how long your keeping the car, are you gonna fling it round track, blah blah blah

you might be better of just replace it with a standard part? is it lowered?

Vicky, something cheap. Halfords pads would do.

Forget the Halfords own 172 replaement pads there useless. There a bit dangerous with any sort of heat in them.

No i want some decent ones i dont mind paying, i will probably end up getting some of the green stuff pads of yozzasport and some uprated shockers

just put ferodo on mine, really happy with them, the wheels lock up nicely lol.

but, never used to green stuff so havent really got a good opinion, people say they are good though!

just put green stuff on my better halfs scenic with brembos, bloodyhell for a big barge it hauls up sharper than ever

Used greenstuff on quite a few cars and found them to be pretty good for normal road driving.

Avoid the EBC discs though......c**p

 

[Fred@BTM]

Avoid the EBC discs though......c**p

agree!

Mike @ Rentech put the same combo on my 182 at the last service. They're a hell of an improvement over the OE jobbies - mind you, I was down to the metal backing on my OE pads, so that might explain why!

Fred - what are these new shockers you're getting in, as I'm in need of some new ones?

 

[Ali]

If your not going to drive fast, then std pads will do.

Like people who buy coils, no point at all. other than asthetics.

The car does get thrown around when its handling better and has brake pads to stop ya I will be going on track but not this year
