good deal i thought

needed new front discs for my car and with fto calipers i need 282 discs so looking around the discs were coming in at over 100 for a set, found that renault scenic use the same disc so paid £25 for a brand new set of pagid blank discs and i have to say they are alot better than the grooved discs that were on. just thought id share my little money saver

Your going down the brembo twin pot route now .... i thought you had some aston martin calipers mate ?

id love the brembos on but they are huge, fto calipers i have on already work good with just new discs so im in 2 minds now wether i need anything better

You know what they say "if its not broke dont fix it "...... if they are man enough and atleast you have all the set up already ...

What pads are you using?

they are just crappy pads on so maybe upgrade next when i replace them

just like the look of big brakes really

Could try them carbotech pads as people rate them highly?

Are you saying Renault scenic discs fit the pulsar?

yes they do if you already have the evo 1-3 /fto twinpots fitted and the 4mm spacer, they are direct fit and fraction of the cost

oh ok well im on standard setup so they wont fit mine

Of course you want to save money who dose not but if discs are to pricey at over a hundred doubt paying that for pads is a option plus they will kill them discs

its more about the fact of buying 100 ebay discs that are actually worse than a set of standard discs for a third of the price

Just expressing what ive heard, thought someone on here had carbotechs on a relatively standard brake setup?

A few people do i was just adding saying they are very good but cost alot and will kill cheaper discs in no time if not warp them

Fair enough, im thinking of going down the route of carbotechs on some uprated oem size discs and see how they feel, if not good enough then ill fit one of the kits I got kicking around.

Just road use ? Once up to a working temp keep them cool if that makes sense brake ducts and wheels with big spaces between the spokes helps. Like alot of performance pads they do put alot of dust off

The car has only seen road use so far, but im hoping in 2014 to break my trackday cherry

Tell me about it been at least 3 year i just always change something or dont have the cash. People say its not expensive i disagree

Its not the money that stops me, its either the car isn't ready or broken and the fact I still need a trailor license! Got a towing vehicle, car trailer etc just need that bit of paper...

All the above apply cars never ready and cash i done a lesson for my trailer just never booked the test as the instructor went on hol for a week and work went manic

is there a how to guide on making the fiat 20v brembo calipers fit
