So was wondering what discs+pads do the 300+ hp coupe guys in here are using? I am in the 380+ hp range so I need to improve my stopping power!

f40 conversion is for sale ?

DBA 4000 series discs with pagid Yellow or Grey

I've never used better brakes

EBC redstuff

Hey Nigel

Where can I find the DBA 4000 discs??
Are they 284 or 305mm?

DBA 4000s are available from Pagid - check out the various Pagid Group Buys

they are 305mm

Hopefully I will be able to support Nigel's view on the DBA/Pagid Yellow combo shortly . I can, however personally testify already to how good 3G discs with Pagid Greys cope with significant abuse on track ! Mind you, you need to have good fluid to go with them, if you want to avoid boiling it!

Phil

Did you ever find a reasonable two-piece setup Phil?

I'll testify for EBC Turbogroove + EBC Yellow stuff pads

I had the turbogrooves in my Marea and they just warped so easily!! I promised never to buy em again

You must be verry brutal with your brakes if you can heat-up the yellowstuff properly. I would advise the redstuff

No, not yet , but I haven't given up .

Phil

Id say your quite a wimp if they last long enough

Should try real men pads, like the pagid yellows

3G 20gr and EBC yellow spec r pads are fine for me and a lowly 290bhp/290ftlb (ish). personally if i had spent 3+k geting to 380 bhp i would be spending 2k on brakes to stop me as well as i go

Yogis - do you want a track setup or a road setup? Track setups are a pain to use on the road and vice versa!

Okay so if these are the best for 300+ and they cope with track days then wheres the best place to get them from as i cooked mine at donnington and i need some asap.

Try Nigel's Pagid group buy, where you can get both the DBA discs and the pagid yellows to go with them .

Phil

i will have another look at Nigels group buy,
cheers Phil

I think I will go with Nigels group buy, already contacted them
