You sure them's the same as the SS kit? That was a "Red Dot" group buy, so just wanting to make sure...

I can't recall part number but a quick email/phonecall to SS should sort it out.

I have always used "what it comes with" which I believe are Pagids. However, last time I needed, they didn't have any & I got some DS2500s instead for track use, which whilst great, I like less. However, only gave 'em 20 laps before the engine died

Running EBC Greens on the road, which are OK but not for Fast B/C road.

If your kit is supplied with the pads 07.5146.30 Galfer 3318 FF
then the mentioned pads could fit, but always check for the right dimensions.
Pagid rs4-2 (U1408) and Mintex M1166 (MDB1968) will fit. I've used them.
It could be that you have to cut 5 mm from the outside pad to clear the bell.
I am not sure, but I think that the red dot caliper is the same.
Caliper X2.064.21/24 this is the official brembo number
Caliper 205.189.00 this is a brembo number used for the lotus caliper and is used in the SS kit.
They are the same in dimensions.

Well had my galfer's removed today- and both pads were heavily cracked!

whoops.

going to try out the red Dot XF carbon compound- http://www.reddotracing.co.uk/eng/Pads/pads.html
XF Compound - Competition Pads
Designed primarily for very high powered road going cars and for light competition use.
This Kevlar based pad is stable over a wide range of temperatures working well from cold up to 950C.
apparently they wear faster than the DS2500 but the XF's are VERY cheap when you mention you were part of the scoobynet Brembo GB
I bought two sets, and delivered next day all for £110 !!
I will be 'testing' them thoroughly once they have bedded in

Augusto @ RD assured me that the XF pads wipe the floor with the 'standard' pads that came with the GB Brembo kit..

Will report back soon.
