What brake upgrades

[KDEANO31]

Any recommendations re: brake upgrades? Im planning a lot of track work in the next few months and was thinking of upgrading the discs and pads.

std plain discs are fine, Castrol response Super DOT4 fluid and if your hard on the pads, some pagid RS blues will last you the trackday season and the year or more road miles.

Bigger brakes are the way to go if you want better braking

Just dont buy greenstuff pads.

I have allways rated mintex pads and if you are planning on alot of track use get some M1155 mintex you will be very impressed with them

Slight overkill there Paddy!

Standard discs with Mintex M1144, Pagid Fast Road or Ferrodo DS2500 pads are more than good enough...

Im using the DS 3000 pads at the moment . They work well cold but are apt to squeal a bit.

Were base braking data is based on paper plates and wooden spoons
