Need pointing in the right direction for brakes
« on: 25 April 2010, 14:36 »
I need new pads and disc's. I need something that works when they're warmed up, standard ones are scary after 10 mins.
Pads I ain't got a clue what to get, heard red stuff are good, but don't really want them though. For disc's, any old grooved ones will do?
It's a 95 16v (small disc) and I know I need new rear bearings.
Thanks for any help.
