Brembo brakes

Post by 1 GTI »

Just bought some brembo max disc's and fast road pagid pads. Couldn't get brembo pads for some reason. Got them in GSF. £93 for the lot, had some discount aswell, hehe. I hate new brakes, means I can't go fast now.

Are you using EBC green stuff pads? Im using fast road pagid pads. I've only done about 140 miles with them so far. Do you notice a difference in braking? I can't find brembo pads, you know where I can get them from? Cheers mate

Yeah EBC greenstuff on mine. Big difference on braking. Standard GTi brakes are quite poor.

No idea where you can get Brembo pads from.

Brembo don't make brake pads. I work for GSF and went on a training course for Jurid pads and Brembo discs. Im pretty sure he said Honeywell supply the pads to Brembo and box them.
