Ive found a good source for a discounted AP 6 pot kit. the one down-side is that the discs are drilled not grooved. i know that grooves are preferred but would i have cracking probs bearing in mind that my car will not be used for trackdays?
i am an "enthusiatic" braker but this will only be on the road

2ndly what brake pads do people recommend. i want a set up that will be excellent from cold, wont glaze with continual gentle braking and will be good to the discs

Cheers

I would use the standard AP SHP ZX pads if you can get them for the 6 pot fitment, I know several people who use them, they dont mark the discs, glaze or squeak like Padgid Blues do.....

hope that helps!
