Brakes...

The pads are getting low!

 

Should I bung some replacement pads in there, or upgrade to UK discs, calipers and pads, or go for something monsterous?

 

Where do people recommend I enquire about these parts, if I'm to go for an upgrade?

 

Also what size are the UK spec brakes?

 

Cheers,

 

Adam.

A lot of people (my self included) have upgraded to the UK spec brakes and have found the difference incredible. IMHO, unless you are going to go for mental power figures, they are the most cost effective route.

 

The size diference is 320mm for the Uk and 295mm for the J-spec.

 

The one thing you need to bear in mind is whether they will fit under your wheels.

 

BTW, I am currently just about to close a group buy for the UK spec brakes on the for sale board. If you need prices, then you can look there.

I just did my fronts- hmm correction my mrs just did my fronts (I showed her how and she did it so piece of pi** easy) and the difference is amazing. I got a spare sett from michel lane don't think he has any left now so join the queue with CJ and wait for him to get assed about for about 18 pages before they arrive lol (the assed about is done mainly by the people that ordered them)
