Rory Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Hi Folks I've just decided to get standard pads for my car ( 1997 N/A ) , it needs new front pads and rear pads and discs. Fensport seem to have reasonable prices, at about 30 for each set of pads. Does anyone know anywhere even cheaper? Thanks Rory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve W Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Can give you the Mintex and Lockheed numbers but don't know that they'd be much cheaper than £30 ?? [most suppliers can cross these numbers . . i just haven't done it lately . . DOH ! ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve W Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I CAN vouch for the Blueprint pads AND discs as i KNOW that they are AS SUPPLIED BY TOYOTA ! ! ! [We bought Blueprint for a customer/friends Soop, then i bought Toyota ones for MINE . . . . bit peeved when i opened the TOYOTA BOXES and found exactly same discs and pads ! ! !] As for any others Mintex/Lockheed/Lucas/Girling etc etc they are all good makes ON NORMAL ROAD CARS, but i can't say how they fair on a Soop, even the N/A is quite vicious on pads and discs.

Steve W Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Oh, BTW, i'm running UK spec/size on our N/A, the fronts are 'Blueprint' Discs and Pads, (and have already stood up to Carole's Santa Pod antics ! ! ! ! ! ) the rears are 'Toyota' Discs and Pads.

Steve W Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 errrr, just noticed the '97 bit Check the shape of those 'shadow' pics that you've still got the 'Jap' pads ? Not sure if the later Soop N/A could have UK brakes (or even a third type ??? think there's only 'big' and 'small' though ??) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
