Brake pads?
« on: 12 November 2012, 16:46 »
Ok so I have been to get some brake pads and they squeek like crazy! So I'm not going to be such a tight arse and get some better quality ones. But which ones? Anyone know a good site as I don't really trust eBay as they say Brembo pads are £30? Also I would like to find the right ones as uni part decided to sell me the wrong ones first time around. How many varients are there for a 1.8 20v turbo? Cheers :)
