Seems too good to be true! I need new discs and pads for my sti, will these be a straight swap for the standard discs? And the pads fit straight into the Brembos?

I had a set fitted a few days ago to the litchfield - had the pads on my blobWRX before.
They're still bedding in but feel good and work from cold should be excellent when they're fully bedded in.

that is exactly what i need to know as I use my car everyday so on a general day not much heat builds up as i hardly use my brakes. Its only when I go out for a "drive" do i need the brakes to cope with lots of heat and not fade on me. I never track my car so doesn't really need to be full race spec. A friend suggested Godspeed brakes so thought I would have a look then saw this set looks like it could be just what i need :-).

Why are there front only discs and orangestuff pads on there for £250? The set being discussed are cheaper and you get rears as well...?

+1 for Godspeed brakes. I had new custom discs made to fit my Bell housings from Ian, refurbed my Brembo GT's and supplied a new set of Kevlar pads. Awesome and great from cold. Probably wouldn't go anywhere else now

The Orangestuff pads are £154.44 on there own , the kevlar pads are cheaper , so the full kit is cheaper.
The kevlar pads are a good increase from standard , but don't perform anywhere near as good as the orangestuff pads
We try and put together packages to suit everyones pocket and use , the more expensive pads work better when driven very hard , on the track the kevlars would end up fading
Cheers Ian

Where do I sign...!
Think the Kevlar set up will do me as I don't track and need to replace front and rears so this would be ideal for me.
