I need to replace my front discs and pads,
The car is used day to day no track days
Could anyone reccomend a suitable setup.

Cheers,

Jason.

you could simply go for O.E. set-up (less than £200inc.) or a mild upgrade??? really depends on budget and use.........grpN discs with a fast road /track day type pad (around £300inc.) is probs our most common seller but choice is yours!
feel free to email for any specific advice

Cheers stockcar,
I've had a couple of prices tsl & godspeed,
Tsl dont recomend 335 disc upgrade they have quoted me on brembo std size + ds2500 pads.
The 335 package godspeed offer sounds ok to me although i am no brake wizard,
I also understand i'm going to hear differend stories from dealers who are trying to sell me their own package.
Oh and ggr racing offer ebc & tarrox
My budget is aroud 4-500 quid.
Cheers,
Jason.

Jason have you got a WRX or STi ?

I have a WRX with Group N discs and DS2500 pads from TSL.

Brake feel is much more positive than the O.E setup. For basic fast road use they are very good.
