Default Brake Discs

I need to replace the front discs as one is warpped and rather than replace with standard ones i would like some performance ones.What ones are best to go for.I don't want to pay loads of money for some but i don't want cheap crap at the same time.A mate of mine was using EBC on a well tuned Rover 620ti and these seemed to do the job well.Are there any makes that people have found to work well on the S12's.

Hiya,
I got mine from Simon at Norris Designs, but I must admit, it was a few years ago.
They were drilled and grooved front and rears. There was a big difference, when installed, over the standard brakes. But I did install goodridge hoses, dot5 fluid and made up all new solid brake lines at the time too.
Not too sure on the price though, sorry.
Regards,
Ian.

Have seen them on ebay.Are they any good as that seems a good price for front and rear.Have been quoted £96.30 for two standard front discs from local motor factors.

They aren't tested on here as far as I know.

Slimreeper and I went for the more expensive black diamonds but S13eater got the same disks without the pointless anodisation for half the price (about 170 full set). With decent pads the brakes are awesome (our car is stripped out though so it's a little lighter than standard which helps). I don't know if he can still get hold of them though.
