hogmaw Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Need some new UK spec front brake discs + pads. The CW pads have been great and lasted ages so I will probably get more of those. I've had a quick look around for discs and unless I go for stock the only other option I see is Brembo etc which cost big money. Surely there is a middle ground somewhere? Some cheaper grooved discs perhaps? Pointers welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordy.r Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 EBC ? Dunno if they do them for the Supra, but I know they do some really good discs. Had carbon blades on my last car and really liked them from the off, plus they look the dogs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Stock discs work perfectly well and not stupidly priced and in over 150,000 miles i've never used anything else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordy.r Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 These were what I had and Heres a little review on them: http://www.pasmag.com/performance/power-pages/2582-ebc-brakes-high-carbon-blade-discs And here's somewhere to buy EBC products: http://www.ebcbrakeshop.co.uk/files_ebc.v1 (Though I don't see the carbon blades in that list but they do have grooved options, I'm sure a greater search will turn something up) P.S. I was recommended these by a German technician who tests brake discs for the race teams at the Nurburgring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Clark Motorsport usually has a good line in DBA disks available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Thanks guys, the EBC ones look a bit pricey, but the DBA ones look pretty decent. I might give them a go if nothing else pops up soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I went with DBA's and have been very happy. I find that stock disks used to warp too easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I put a full set of slotted DBA disks on mine, along with a set of race pads, very happy with them so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had this problem on o/e UK brakes on either of my uk spec cars, including doing a few track days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer grooved ones mind OEM Stock disks are around £100 for a pair, so way more than stock discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
