Which discs and pads

Recommended Posts

So I'm after some advice as im totally confused... I'm going to be replacing both the discs and pads on my 54 plate zed with this years service in a few weeks and it looks like the stock ones are still on and given its only done 40k "ish" miles I guess that's expected.

 

Anyway, what's a good decent replacement as I don't really want to go with stock ones and like the black drilled discs but don't know which ones. All advice welcome!

I've been looking at discs for a while becuase the 'hats' on mine are corroded. I bookmarked these for when the time comes: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/88812-special-package-price-dba-t2-discs-and-hawk-pad/ and also these rather nice looking black ones: http://cougarstore.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_7_3&products_id=115&zenid=02079adaf5ea052dd3f22626e4ab8f87

 

There was also some chat on here about discs too: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/69165-decent-discs-and-pads-not-too-much-money/page__st__20

On my S/c Zed I have EBC turbo groove front discs with Ferodo DS2500 pads, Goodridge braided brake lines and Motul RBF600 brake fluid.

 

EBC discs: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=78_169_293_463_465_1414&products_id=20370

Ferodo DS2500 pads: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=78_169_293_463_465_1414&products_id=25421

Motul RBF600 fluid: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=78_169_293_463_466&products_id=25423

 

This set up works well imo for fast road use and won't break the bank. :thumbs:

Definitely Motul RBF600 fluid, and I opted for EBC Discs, and their Yellow Stuff pads (bit dusty) but zero fade & have Hosetechnik brakes & clutch line.

In the future, I'll change the discs to ones which don't have that horrible bit of corrosion on the surfaces.

Don't forget to bed the new discs/pads !
