Right, i've now more or less killed the greenstuff pads and brembo max disks fitted with my g40 brake setup. think i've managed to warp the left front disk
what makes are everyone else using? obviously i want good brakes but don't really want to spend loads and end up with the disks warping again!

Your not gonna get much better unless you upgrade to bigger brakes. Brembo max discs are good, maybe it warped as they were previously on another car. I would try some more brembo max or standard vented discs along with Ferodo DS performace pads.

I have the G40 calipers and carriers to go on mine. I've just got the original vented discs and pretty much standard set-up Ate pads. The discs are already worn in 1mm, so I may upgrade when these have gone.

Let us know how good they are, when you have bedded them in.
