garygttdi Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Its not urgent as the issue ( worn rotors) and pad wear are not great just need doing before next service or in the next 6K miles , Can anyone recommend a set of new rotors and pads foro the front and rear pads please. Car is highly tuned at Abbey so need decent brakes, although current are not at all bad (I think EBC, probably yellow stuff) Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted (appropriate getting used to you lot) ! 2005 350Z GT 31K miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the term is reassuringly expensive, yes you can get cheaper buy if you were taking Pippa Middleton to buy some new shoes would you go to Primark ? Anyway I got old stock from Alex at half price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Zada Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I fitted the same combo myself a couple of months ago from Alex and cant recommend them enough. Only brakes ive fitted to any of my cars that actually firmed up the pedal. I went from ebc red stuff too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I'm on Brembo, Yellowstuff, HEL lines, Motul 660 and OEM discs... and I think my brakes are looovvveelly for road use - positive, bite and stop are great IMHO. Never noticed any sign of fade either. I am tempted by Alex's T3 and Ferrodos next time - but since I dont track, I wonder if they are overkill for my purposes. Cheaper Black Diamond appear to be regarded well (coldel), so may be a good combi with yellowstuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
