Have bought a nice car and hoping to pick it this week. Among the identified issues are the front brakes which will need new discs and pads shortly. Now, bear in mind I'm coming from a GT3 weighing 1350kg and going to this car weighing 1850+kg, and that I like to drive quickly and brake quite late, and I'm not too struck on what I've experienced so far. The new car has the smaller discs - drilled 330mm I think - and I'm not looking to add a big brake kit but I want the best stopping power available within the existing parameters. Has anyone tried the EBC discs or the pads? The red stuff pads are quite good, the yellow stuff even better but possibly too soft for a heavy car. The prices are just about the same as Mercedes OE (and a quarter of what Porsche charge!) and I know EBC have quite a good reputation. Or does anyone have any other suggestions?
