New discs and pad choices?

[D3S]

Ok i think its about time i changed my discs and pads as well they are OE items and they are long time overdue to be changed. And as i am heavy on the brakes  i think they are going to tell me enough is enough lol

Now i am not sure what to go for, OE discs and uprated pads like EBC, Pagid or Mintex or have Groved discs up front. At the same time i am going to get the brake lines changed to braided items as well

Any ideas? and recommend where to get them from? Uk or abroad.

Cheers

I got my braided lines from re-worx, very nice kit. As for discs i\'d go for http://www.speedways.co.uk/apec/list/mazda/16.htm and get them grooved and drilled (optional extra). For pads im running Blackdiamond up front and longheed at back but im still bedding in.

What ever you do dont get Greenstuff pads they are plop with a capital \'P\'. I have black diamond discs all round and they seem okey, but as said before they do make alot of dust. I think when i change my pads i will get Hawk, as i just like their name :yes  :rollin

Gav, EBC brakes are not up to the job on an RX-7. Many users on here have founf out the hard way, sadly.

Go with either the black diamond disc and pads.

Cheers guys, its funny as when i had the MR2, every one used to say stay away from black diamond as they are prone to cracking...looks like times have changed

Has anyone tried tarox sports disc japan, i had them on my old car, pretty impressed but not sure what they would be like on a rex.
