I'm sure sourcing the parts from the scrappy etc for the G60 conversion works fine, but I'm unusually anal about brakes so had my wallet raped for a new set

Nice, what model are they on 8v/16v? Did you change the master cylinder as well? Been thinking of this upgrade myself (8v) but wasnt sure if it was worth it with the standard master cylinder...

if your gonna do it you may as well replace the master cylinder, they don't cost too much. only buy a new one, don't bother with second hand.......
