Yeah that's the price I found. I'll use the rotors then depending on my cash flow at the time they need replacing I may buy more or make a bracket so I can run the 305mm 406 coupe disc________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |

I would imagine you could pick up a similar setup to my hi-specs around 350-400, i run C4 VTS discs (g88's) and DS2500'sThe issue you have (as i've found) is you need to go in with your eyes open, my discs were £200 or so from memory which is fine, but the pads are £150 ish and i've done a set in 3 track days! (just upgraded to DS3000's)   |

the whole reason the welly designed the brackets for the wilwoods to fit is because of how cheap the discs and pads are to replace as he was doing lots of track days and they also give fantastic stopping power. my genuine brembo discs were £38 and the ds2500 pads were £70________________________________________ Team SUPERCHARGED I LIVE FOR THE 306 Old Project thread Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url = |

My discs and pads have lots of life left and have done probably 8+ trackdays and 15-20 laps of the nordschleife. Rotors were circa £400 and pads around £250.If you can get them give carbotech xp8 pads a try, not managed to kill them yet and they've had a lot of abuse, 40+ mins on track at cadwell both when n/a and supercharged. False economy buying cheap discs and pads if they only last three trackdays in my eyes. ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |

I use Carbotech XP8s in the race car and they last for a whole race season. That's 7 races and about 5 trackdays / test days which I think is near enough 1100 hard track miles.________________________________________ Rallye Race Car |
