Brake pads and discs all round for sti bugeye
car is only 325bhp and wont be tracked, some backroads every once in a while , any thoughts what would be suitable for me thanks,

 

For me I’d say if there all in there limits and you have to replace discs then I’d go Godspeed or ebc , if it’s just pads I’ve only ever used ds2500 , ebc red and currently using Brembo hp2000 which are very good in my opinion. I also only ever use spirited road driving although did have ebc red when at brands hatch track day. Depends on the dreaded budget. !

 

I need discs pads and handbrake shoes, i wasnt sure to just replace with brembos discs and pads, my budget would probably be around 750 sterling for everything

 

Brembo discs and hp Brembo pads are a good economical combo

 

ask EBC about yellow pads for test, maybe You will be lucky like few of us,
their discs are very good to but unfortunately no free samples

 

I’ve put mtec discs on my last few Fsti , ebc yellowstuff , or black diamond are the pads im using , as above there are also a few trade sellers on here well worth speaking to

 

Currently got EBC Blues on mine which are okay but a little wooden. Had EBC Oranges previously; the first set were outstanding but the second not so much. Also got HP2000's on the BMW and for a fast road pad (that thing gets driven hard) they seem absolutely spot on, like a better, more OEM like (in terms of breadth of nice feel) DS2500. If you're not tracking and don't melt everything you put in there then the Brembo's may well be a good all round performance option for you.

 

Hi, I have a 2003 Sti and replaced all disc and pads last year with EBC Yellowstuff pads and BSD discs. They are really good - not the cheapest but in my opinion worth the money if you are going to keep the car for a while. Changed the fluid at the same time. The pedal is very firm, good cold braking and they cope very well in Seville where I live with temps in summer at 44 degrees during August!

Also the dust is way better than other pads I have had in the past. Really happy with them and they look amazing!

 

+1 for this combo on my Hawk STi.

 

I ended up going for brembos in the end hope i dont regret it, only 279 quid discs and pads all round 4 duch a good price i thought i would give them a chance. If im not happy i can always change the pads.

gone for cheapest option possible🤣

 

Yeah lol
i put 4 new eagle f1 asymetric 6s on this week,
the brembo brakes have to better than what i have on her now lol. Also went for new handbrake shoes and millars 10w 60 and a rcm oil filter for 675 quid.

 

They won't be as good as the HP2000's but they'll function fine if you're not pushing it hard.

 

I put Godspeed hook & Kevlar pads on mine,decent price,but not overly impressed,..no issues but I wouldn’t say much better than standard

 

never had any joy with any variation of "Kevlar" pads - we don't find them exciting and in most cases a good quality OEM pad will outperform them.....

 

Thats because they are sold as a pad that works like standard , but will hold on slightly more when having a spirited drive , they are not sold as a performance pad like PF or CL , they suit those who drive there cars as a daily , work , school runs , shops ect , and spirited now and again , if you are looking for sharper brakes , upgrade the fronts to PF Z rated

 

GODSPEED seem to offer different options.

 

Godspeed hook and Kevlar pads on mine…absolutely fine 👌

 

Correct , we can supply any make pads
