Twisted Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 It's coming close to the time where I need to change my brake pads and maybe my discs (which I need to measure/inspect the condition of properly) I am wondering where would be a good place for me to buy brake pads and discs for my supra? I've had a little search through the forum and everyone seems to talk about don't go on Ebay (granted) and have a look on the for sale section for brake upgrades to UK spec. I have a standard MKiv TT Jspec. Although I would still like to know where to buy brake pads for a UK spec brake set up for when I eventually upgrade. Thanks in advance Tristan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross C Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 For brake pads either Toyota or Chris Wilson (trader on here) are your best bets. Chris's fast road pads have very good rep on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Bieber Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Another one for the Chris Wilson pads here, they kick out a bit of dust, but they are a world away from the stock toyota pads, gave me so much more confidence in the brakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Never found CW's pads dusty. You want dusty, fit Porterfields! Porterfields weren't any more dusty than anything else iv had. But they work well and don't need to be warmed up. Iv had various ebc pads over the years, red, yellow, green. And they all were crap when cold and only slightly better when warm. Best iv ever had we're endless ccx. But they at ££££ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
