Looking into some new discs, saw the Brembo ones that are £21 or around there on GSF, however out of stock.I emailed them and they said that they have been discontinued. Bugger. There are so many threads on here saying to choose them, so what do you guys say now? Also I have wilwood calipers, do these use the standard discs and pads? ________________________________________ danposs86's GTi-6 |

I spoke to my local GSF just after xmas.They listed two types of 283mm discs : OEM (for the bendix set up) and cheaper one(not Brembo) I asked about Brembos and he said if he ordered OEM (Bendix) then the main depot would probably supply Brembo. He said to wait till after new year till he could speak to his man in the main depot so he could make sure i got Brembo's. After all that i got my mate, who's a CNC operator, to sort my old ones FOC. ________________________________________ Phase 2 Blaze GTi6PS3 - Black Ops 2 Engine crane for hire Renfrewshire |

I just tried GSF cos other threads on here had mentioned that they did them.I'm sure there must be other places too i'm sure. anyone know if Brembo's are that much better than the Bendix? Bendix are same as the ones you'll buy from pug i think so surely they pretty good for road use. ECP do Pagid which i've heard are alright too. Is it a a road or track car? ________________________________________ Phase 2 Blaze GTi6PS3 - Black Ops 2 Engine crane for hire Renfrewshire |

what have you7 been doing to "warp" the discs? quite unlikely tbh, more likely to be pad deposits.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

I got some Zimmermann discs from GSF after several failed attempts at getting Brembo discs, i was not sure about them at first but i've got to say they have been great, done several trackdays, a few laps of the nordschleife and i even went out of my way to get more at fair expense imported from Germany. ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |
