make a noticeable difference? have you upgraded your brakelines aswell??

sorry for all the  questions... think i might just upgrade my front ones for the time being..

I had my front and rears done at the same time with brand new discs and pads - so long ago i cant remember what the standard was like tbh  :laugh:

They are razor sharp though  :smiley: No im on standard brake lines  :smiley:

Most only do the 312mm fronts as the rear doesn't do much of the braking  :smiley:

+1
Had mine done in similar manner, uprated brake fluid, goodridge front and back lines, new mintex disc/pads. The increase is very nice, stopping is improved by a considerable amount and it bites alot harder!
