What Brake Pads do I need from ECP?
« on: July 31, 2016, 05:55:24 pm »
Just gone on to get some brake pads from ECP and they are showing 2 different types for the front. Which ones do I need? Cars a 05 GTI on standard brakes.

I'd go for Textar personally.

That's the brand I've chosen for my NQSBBK and they seem good.

Brand wise gonna be textar, pagid or brembo or something it's more the fact of there's 2 different specs for the fronts and which one to go for out of the 2. The 2 pics basically show the price variations in the 2 specs for the fronts

If you click on fitment detail, it should tell you the size of the discs etc.. 312mm is what your after.
