i got mintex 1155 pads and cheepo discs on my classic STI, reason for it is im VERY hard on brakes and i warp/crack most brakes anyway,,,, and my company make discs so i use them as i get a no quibble warranty on em ( im the technical supervisor who makes the desision he he )

i had NO fade at all on 1 track day and 25 laps of the ring,, the tyres gave up though and span me but the brakes where the NUTS

OH downside is it seems the pads are eating the discs..... but for the cash i paied and ive only changed the discs once,,,, adn they wasnt actually bad tbh

pads are the NUTS though !!!
