I need to buy some decent brake pads around £100 mark for my 9-grooved DBA discs and spark plugs for my 20VT.

I was thinking of getting Tarox Rallye or Corsa+ pads. Any other suggestions? I won't be doing more than 1 track day a year and would like pads which will offer good stoping power from almost cold. At the same time pads which will handle temp. around 500 - 600C and and braking from 120mph to 0.

I need to change plugs and was thinking about some decent, colder ones (NGK?). I am running 255bhp @ 1bar with standard turbo, GTEC1, MBC, uprated IC and Simota Racing cone filter.

Any suggestions welcome ;\)

When you've had a chance to bed them in can you give some feedback on what the DS2500s are like? While I've heard they are much better than standard, do they need to be warmed up before biting properly?

No worries I will give some feedback later on. From what I heard they offer great stopping power from cold.
