I'm running some of those ebay brake discs and they are fine, 1000000 times better than my old disc's, but they were knackered.

You can order just the fronts etc if you have a word with the chap selling them.

They were also cheaper than a stock pair of discs even with a discount from my local motor factors.

Any idea on the brand though? Cheaper no-name brands are likely to warp with any serious use.

Well mine are fine for fast road work on a stock S12 (using red stuff pads). Thats all I can say as thats all I know.

If you wanting to use them for competition I would personally approach a manufacturer direct and ask what competition discounts you get for running sponsorship on your car.

£40 for the red stuff pads with the discs, might be cheaper elsewhere but much less hassle.
