something like the Brembo HC discs are excellent quality at a very sensible cost and coupled with a Pagid competition or PFC material (or possibly Mintex F4R) will make for a very good option - bear in mind you need the rear to do some work also

For hill climbing , you want a good pad that will work straight away , I would go with the CL RC5+ pads , very good pad and very well priced compared to other good performance pads

http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/impr...rc5-pads-.html

We can offer you them with our 295mm grooved discs for £200.

Cheers Ian
