hi folks

my oem drilled front discs are starting to wear (fine radial groove lines showing on face)

without bun fights or popcorn can the wealth of knowledge suggest ;-
a good mid priced upgrade.
only run 3/4 trackdays per year and tend to sympathic to the car compared to other driving styles i’ve encountered??

no clear what the benefit to seperate bells / discs are but intial outlay seenm high, so proberbly considering a decent “1 piece” disc?
i an running SBS pads which have been a great improvemnt over OEM, should i look to replace this as well??

thx

I’d go OEM again!!

‘radial grooves’ - not cracks???

Anyhow, I’d get away from drilled hole discs. Speak to Dave at seriously and ensure you get a moosive discount

Agree if you are not fading the standard ones just stick with them or grooved, decent pads and fluid should see you fine :wink:

Works for me…^^^^^^^^^^

cheers guys

i was getting fade on my last track day, well it was more of a judder than just less braking power. pads still have pleanty of life and brake fluid was replaced at last service, so i figured it was proberbly discs that were struggling???

anyone suffered similar effects

I’d also check the brake fluid in that case, it may have boiled and need replacing !!

Juddering is normally uneven pad deposits. What pads you using?

I wouldn’t stick with the oem drilled discs on the front either - They are prone to cracking with track use.

If you are going to continue to track then I think separate bells/discs are the way to go mated to a decent set of pads.

Standard calipers are up to the job so something like this would meet your requirement for a good mid priced upgrade (actually seeing how much you can spend, these are probably well below mid priced):
