New discs and front pads fitted. Wow

Sleeker GT Phwoar 26 April 2005 12:28:28
 Akebono Ceramic pads
DBA grooved vented discs (rebranded Brembos)

Front only done ATM, doing rears tomorrow.
Gave the fronts a good flush through with DOT 5.1 too.

These things only have about 4 miles normal driving on them and they
feel fantastic.

Once the rears are done, and everything is bedded in, they should be
absolutley awsome.

Just done the front and rears on the TDi but with stock VW bits (I don't know
what's got into there parts department but spare OEM parts are now quite cheap)
as no one else seemed to know what the rear disks would be. Nice not to have
that grinding noise now. ;)

Well, the fronts were original.
But the pads hads green backing plates.
They were branded AISIN which a Toyota OEM supplier, but normally, green
colouring on Toyota stuff like brakes and suspension means TRD stuff.

They had about 1/3 left in the them, and really didn't work at all well,
but that could have been worn discs and crap fluid.

Got the rears done now.
Brakes even better, and nothing has run in yet.
Pin sharp already.

I'm having a nightmare of a time tracking down anything for the Pug !

305mm discs aren't cheap. But I can pick up a pair of EBC's Turbogrooves for
just over Ј100, which is nice.

But pads to fit the Brembos ? I can't find any of the uprated-brands for
less than ONE HUNDRED POUNDS ! Yes, you read that right - a one and two
zeros, for four front brake pads !

Have you tried Godspeed. they do refurb Brembo brake kits using Porsche
brakes. They may have discs.

I used these guys in the states for the Akebono pads
http://www.olyonlin­e.com/. I doubt they are emarked, but they are good
solid quality and properly packed.

Shame they don't do anything Pug.

BTW, the Akebono pads to fit the Aisin Toyota calipers were $100 for
fronts and rears together in ceramic instead of ferous compound.

Shame I got busted for ВЈ35 VAT though as they miss priced the shock
boots on the customs declaration as 2x $119 instead if 2x $19. That
pushed the customs value up enough for them to get suspicious.

My Brembos are exactly the same as those used on a certain Dodge Viper - so
I guess I can prolly get cheap pads from the Yoosay.

However, I've just been in contact with Terry at
http://www.jrt-auto­motive.com/ and he can supply me the Turbogroove discs,
and a set of RedStuff Ceramic pads, for about Ј200 all in. Yay.
