As topic sez - I'm in the market for some pads pretty soon.

Any thoughts?

Well I definately need some soon, not black diamond though! After my last group buy came to an abrupt end think I'll try someone else.
Not EBC green stuff also as I have heard bad reports on them.
Was thinking of Mintex 1144's, though the chap I was arranging my last group buy (Kwik Bitz) with doesn't have an account with Mintex at the mo and would need to get an order for £2k before they would start dealing with him - that's a lot of disks and pads!
Let me know whoever organises this.

I'm keen to organise this if you guys let me? Is it the M1155 or the Ferodo DS2500's you lot prefer??

we specialize in various brake components (main distributors for Pagid Competition, Mintex Racing & Ferodo Competition)..................have run various "buys" in the past for this and other forums, but generally have some "deals" available at all times for Scoobynet peeps, etc.......................

I'm in the market for some pads for both front and rear.

Was possibly going to go for the new EBC Ceramic reds (E388 compound I think).

I've got a MY00 turbo - what prices are we looking at?

I've been offered some APEC ones, but what others are on offer - what are the usuals?

Dan :)

why do I get the impression I'm organising a group buy :D

The Apec pads are only really OE equivalents.

I've been running TSL's group N+ set up, which use DS2500s, for the last 18 months so don't want to go back to OE performance.

Personally I am only up for DS2500s again, the new EBC Ceramic reds or possibly Pagids.

well, let me have some opinions on who wants to have what - I know nowrt about pads, so I'll go with the flow :)

Front and rear for my MY00 Turbo

Probably about £90 for the front and about £55 for the rear depending on rear caliper

Is that price for a group buy or a price you can normally offer?
Reason I ask is that this thread isn't moving fast and I need some soon. PM me if you would prefer.

What do you need to know re. the rear caliper?

I'm not gonna bother organising a group buy, as the "group" is only about 3 people. Kinda pointless.

I suggest that the prices that have been put forward are good, so feel free to sort it yourselves.
