Looking to change my discs & pads on my gtv as they need to be replaced as getting worn..

I have used Tarrrox Disks & Pads on mine along with new braided hoses. Look nice and certainly work well.
Dead Easy to fit as well.
The guys at tarrox were really helpful, now have a set on me 156 JTD.

I got a of discs from MTEC Performance (MTEC Brakes, Performance Brake Discs, Sport Brake Discs) after some recommendations on here. Set of Front Discs was only £73 + £14 for the black coating. You can choose if you want em drilled,grooved, dimpled etc for no extra cost.

Been looking at the mtec brakes,looks like a good option:thumbs:

also checked out the tarrox discs,as stated previous but couldnt find a link with prices ect

only trouble now is if i buy the mtec set they do 2types of pads...gotta find out which type i need

I fitted drilled and grooved discs and Greenstuff pads from EBC Brakes last year, great improvement....Redstuff would probably be more suited to yours.........Brake Pads and Brake Rotors for Cars

. Im gettting these at end of the month as MOT is due and brakes need done. £160 for front and rear discs and pads, drilled and grooved, can't argue with that

I got mtec grooved front disc and ecb greenstuff on my twiney and they are nice and sharp. Got some ECB redstuff on the V6 and i dont think think the bit is as good, and the V6 has braided hoses too!

Only suggested Red Stuff as they are for cars over 200bhp.........my Greenstuff are great but ignorantly thought the reds would be better on a V6....thanks for the V6 driver true info cgc......:thumbs:

All i can say is steer clear of Mintex pads. The compound is very hard and they squeel like crazy

Thanks for the info,the last thing i want is squeeling brakes:thumbs:

You can just buy the discs from Mtec, on the homepage if you go straight to the manufacturer instead of choosing a link on the left then it takes you through to discs on their own. I got greenstuff brake pads.. Seem to be very good indeed.

My mintex don't squeel.

No probs mate. I saw the bhp spec as well, but in real life driving the greenstuff defo have more initial bit to them. I thought the consenous was that the Ferrdo DS2500 was the best to go for, although a little soft and dusty.
