Tapping into the wealth of knowledge here.............Any suggestions on what disk and pad combination to go for......currently got std discs with hawk hp and hp+ on all corners....just need more bite.....also have braided lines.
Also where to pick them up from!
Cheers

You current setup will give good bite with stock discs and calipers, although they do dust like mad :(
Other than that, you really need to look at bigger brakes, then the choice is very varied.

Hi Ed,
As Max says if you really want to get serious you will need Big brakes.

Personaly l never did like the HP+ in the front as l found them very grab n stop!
This may help as an interim fix-
We do have quite a few trackday FD\'s running HT10 in the front and HP+ in the back (to keep the brake bias) with either drilled and slotted Black Diamond or slotted Mintex disc\'s, and I know our customers are happy with this set up.
Hope this helps.

heard that blackdimaond and hawk don\'t work too well the pads supossedly eat through the discs like a rabid dog!!!......can you get brembo discs?
Hmmmmm, never heard that one, obviously l can only comment on the cars that I have experiance of as l try not to go by \'hearsay\' where parts are conserned, l can tell you though that performance Disc\'s don\'t last as long as standard Disc\'s due to softer metals being used to increase the coefficient of friction .
BTW we are Brembo distributors, l will check if they have a listing for an FD as not all brake manufactures list the FD due to it being a low volume car.
p.s. we can do you some real nice Big Brembo 4 pots as seen in the link at well below list.
p.p.s what ever you choose please don\'t even think about EBC as l would not not even use that product to prop the office door open let alone sell you their stuff !!!
Cheers
Clive
