Try http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m10b0s0p0. I use their cross drilled discs with Pagid RS4.2 pads and they are spot on. They are very well priced and have a full warranty replacement if you have any problems with them.

I agree, cross drilled discs are far more likely to crack than just grooved.

Black Diamond and rebadged National Sport, a budget brand.

Brembos are the daddies as far as Im concerned. We just dont get any problems with them because the quality of the castings is so high.

i have black diamond grooved and DS2500's on my sti5

no probs here and i have done nurburgring, Silverstone and castle coombe on the same set up.

I had the black diamond drilled and grooved disks with mintex 1144 pads. Not had any problems and found these much better than standard disks/pads. I now have mintex 1155 pads and I find these much better, but they do take a while to warm up properly.

looks like BD grooved & 1144 pads

Just because people havent had problems with Black Diamond drilled and grooved doesnt make them better than just grooved. Youre still more likely to have problems with discs cracking if you drill holes through them.

I could run with three wheel nuts per wheel on my car and not have a problem with it, it doesnt make it a good idea.

Brembos shouldnt cost any more than Black Diamond. I know for the 200s that the Brembos are very well priced, I dont know the prices on Scooby discs though.

thats pretty ovb, but like i said, ive fitted them and they havent warped or cracked yet

i would have fitted grooved only but there was non in stock and i needed them like yesterday
