What upgraded pads for a E36 325i?

I should be putting my track car back together over the Christmas holidays, was wondering what brake pads you lot recommend to fit the standard size discs and calipers. The car's running standard power levels, just a bit lighter than standard.

Hmm, sounds like the Ferodo's for now then. Any tips for a online supplier?

Is it worth doing the rears as well? Would I need to replace the discs at the same time for them to work properly? Don't want to sound like a cheap skate it's just they've only done a couple of thousand road miles so I'd rather save the expense if possible.

What fluid did you use?

i'm in exactly the same boat, especially seeing as it feels mine are terribly warped!

I was planning on using bremo max disks from gsf since theyre 30quid a go. I had some success with these on my old 306 which had notoriously bad brakes (think, an emergency stop on the motorway would see them fading once you were down to 10/15mph).

As for pads i dont know, but i was thinking about these ds2500 pads. it seems they have good reviews but to be honest, i'd rather spend less. Any ideas? Are ebc's still as terrible as when i was a super car geek like 5 years?

Have you sorted your brakes yet? any pointers?

cheers
