Brakes!!
« on: 02 March 2009, 17:11 »
Just wondering if its really worth doing the whole brake upgrade 312 front and 256 rears or is it just as good getting a good set of pads for the standard brakes? cheers

if your going to be upping the power then its always worth upgrading the brakes mate. But a good set of grooved disc's and better pads would do the job

312 up front, but plain discs/decent pads, IMO.

Stick with the 232's on the rear with decent pads if you're not bothered about the look. ;)
