Default New Break Advice

Okay so I'm looking to upgrade my brakes on my 05 Blobeye WRX I'm on a tight budget and had a look at these

http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/~god...id_product=121

However I'm not sure if this is overkill. So for a little background, the car is putting out 261 bhp and I'm hoping to take it to the nurburgring in october

Anyone able to give me some advice on the best way forward?

Cheers in advance.

If you`re on a budget why not just go for the Godspeed grooved discs and something like orangestuff pads. Ian (Godspeed) will be along soon with some sound advice no doubt

Just get yourself a decent set of disks and pads for the 'ring and you'll be fine.

You will be able to push them discs to the limit of hard braking and they will not overheat, the 2 piece gives it more controlled temps, I had these on mine and they preformed good.
If you buy them get him to throw in orange pads instead. I'm sure he won't mind as they are same price.
