Rear discs

[jod]

Just a quickie,
Want to change the rear discs to completet the brake mod,my local is europarts.
Does anybody have a definate part no or model no for the discs.
Europarts are good but dont like sourcing bits unless i can provide the detailed info and preferred manufacture.
Cheers

the rear breaks are not as important as the fronts, i swopped mine to the ebc turbo grooved discs , a bit expensive but worth it . i did not like the green stuff pads due to the warm up period so went with mintex .

Hi mate,
Rear solids.
Out of interest what pads do you recommend for front and back.
When i got the calipers i completely rebuilt them seals etc,the pads are in excellent condition but i don't know what make they are.I was intending to run them for a couple of hundred miles in case of teething problems and then changing.

Funny enough i have stock Motorcraft/Ford pads in the front gripping Black diamond grooved discs and plain rears with DOT 5.1 fluid and have not faded once,that may change when i do some trackdays though i will get you those part numbers for the rears but they are off any sierra with ABS and solid rears Cosworth XR4i xr4x4 2.0I etc,if your going plain then my preference is ATE,Mintex,Lucas(old stock)Delphi,Motorcraft and not necessarily in that order,unless you want grooved then something like EBC should do ya
