Title: What brakes to buy??
Post by: Jayy26 on February 15, 2014, 01:24:15 am

I was just going to buy some braided hoses off here for around 50 then just buy some uprated brake pads...

What are some decent pads for the road use? Don't know if to go down ebc route or not, I don't fly about everywhere but if I go for a drive with my mates I want some more stopping power ..it's only my front brake pads that need changing an don't want to be spending like 100 on pads :/

I've seen the r32 brakes for sale on here but haven't really got 320 to spend..shall I save then get a bigger brake set up it??

Cheers

Anyone? Do I pay around £300 for r32 front brakes or just hel braided hoses and uprated pads?

If you can afford it the R32 set up is the best way to go. Awesome stoppers for a standard set up without breaking the bank.

Save up for the R32 set-up or get the Porsche brakes set-up (search NQBBK)  :evilgrin:
