Hi
Pad fitment depends on your usage , is it normal driving most of the time with some stick now and again , hard fast road use , or any track days ?

I have 2 group buys on at the moment for our grooved discs and kevlar pads , these pads are the first step up from standard , so work from cold , are quiet , and easy on discs , as they have kevlar content they will take more heat than a standard pads when you want to drive hard , we are offering the discs and pads at £99 or plus £10 for having the disc centres sprayed black to stop them going rusty.

We have also just started another group buy with our grooved discs with the new bluestuff pads , if you do a search you will see some very good reviews on these , they will take pretty much anything you throw at them , they are a very good performance pad , that also works very well at normal speeds , we are offering our grooved discs with painted centres and bluestuff pads for £199

P&P is £12.50 for next day delivery and have them in stock

Hope this helps
Cheers Ian

I was just in a similar position mate and after a fair bit of research,and after reading all the extremely positive results people are getting from the EBC Bluestuff (and other compounds now) thats what i decided to go with.

Apparently they have excellent feel and performance from cold,and get even better as heat gets into them,but would depend how hard you drive your car?

I bought mine from Ian Godney along with his grooved discs and new Hel brake lines and dot 5.1 fluid........all being fitted on Wednesday.

I along with a lot of other happy customers on here would heartily recommend Ian Godney........really nice guy to talk through your needs with and fantastic service (plus he uses an excellent courier!!).

I was lucky enough to be included in the ongoing EBC pad tests at the moment so I bought EBC USR discs. Am currently bedding in the new Redstuff pads for my style of driving.
