Brakes..

Post by rotta » Mon May 18, 2009 10:41 am

im running a full stage 2 s4 with oettinger remap, full miltek exhaust miltek sport cats, downpipes forge diverters, short shift kit, full eibach pro dampers and springs, i love it, however the standard brakes are a bit shall we say..... flakey ive got standard audi discs which have been drilled and im using ebc red stuff pads, i want to upgrade the brakes but dont really want to spend the 1300 for a whole new setup so my question is this, and im sorry if its been asked a million times, what in your opinion are the best pads for normal/fast road driving and also what discs are best??

cheers

Rotta I am using EBC Ultimax Grooved Discs and Yellow Stuff Pads which don't eat discs as the reds do, there better than standard when warmed up but I don't think they would last too long on a track!! Best route is to start saving for a big brake setup I think!!

I need to do something i was enjoying some spirited driving against an evo 8 the other day and got quite severe brake fade not a nice feeling when your on the brakes coming up to a roundabout and they just fade away!!! maybe some competition fluid would help?? anyone used the ceramic ebc pads??

im using ebc turbo groove and redstuff ceramic pads, they're a lot better than standard for fading and bite but with 310bhp+ rs4 or better are needed i think personally.
