VXR8 brakes

[maverick964_uk]

My R8 will need new brake pads soon and the pads are quite expensive.
Was wondering whether to just upgrade them to maybe the WP upgrade kit or maybe Wortec do something?.

I prefer the red calipers. The WP ones are silver finish but dont look that great really.

anyone got any thoughts or has been down this road...........

thanks

I think the r8 brakes are big enough. You could try giving the specialists a call (monkfish) if you want to pay a reasonable price for new pads. IIRC Vauxhall charge a fortune.

Have a look at EBC brakes. Do a google, should get you some info.

We have discs and pads for "non-Vauxhall" money. Sadly, im on my sofa at the moment so cant say exactly how much!
