As Mei said, you'll not get much of an upgrade with that budget IMO.________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |

As above i got some mintex pads off herehttp://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=159684 with standard discs which cant fault for the money. I am awaiting a set of 4 pots though but 2nd hand but are more than £350 Only other option may be the wilwood brackets group buy on here which you would still need calipers so prob end up closer to £4-500 in the end |

Surely I could pick up a set for that, I have seen Wilwoods and Hi Specs out for sale around that sort of price? I was kind of hoping someone had some old kit around... ________________________________________ Phase 1 silver track car335i daily |

You might be able to pick up some Wilwoods or something for £350 but most likely it'll be 406 Brembos. The 310mm RS kit goes for £450 upwards normally, mine will probably be for sale in a couple of months.________________________________________ Rallye Race Car |

For your budget, the 406 brembo's are realisticly your only option. Up your budget another £100 and you will have much more choice.________________________________________ DIABLO GTI-6 - Legend - NILE GTI-6 - SoldCHERRY GTI-6 P1 SUPERCHARGED - Broken up BLACK RALLYE - Sold 205 Dturbo xud9 work horse - Dead CHERRY RALLYE - new toy |

I've got a set of 406 brembos in red with braided lines fitted to them pagid pads and discsThey do squeal though and the only way to stop it would be worth Tarrox G88 discs. But I'm only after £100 + postage. ________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |
