Post by: gnarlysurf on 20 February 2008, 16:35

if you go to www.gsfcarparts.com you should find all you need. i don't think they list them (but they do stock them, you might have to call a branch) but zimmerman drilled discs are good and inexpensive. them and some pagid pads will be fine for the front, just standard discs and pads for the rear as they don't have to work half as much as the fronts.

Wouldn't really called drilled brakes an upgrade!

well there's not much of any upgrade to 239's then other than fitting 256mm 16v ones? thats just a tried and tested combo so should be fine.
