[toenheel]

Morning all

My performance friction front discs are goosed need some replacements delivering asap. Any suggestions?

I take it PF are still the preferred choice?

[toenheel]

Cheers, I've dealt with Martin before so emailed him. :beer:

Well all sorted managed to get the discs fitted today and repainted the bells so looking fresh. Big thanks to Martin for the prompt service.

i prefer the new AP discs. PF's don't last as long on track for me.

How many track days can you get out of Ap's V PF?

I prefer PF, mine have lasted longer than AP.

My extensive :) records show they last the same BUT the APS show early sign of crazing and cracking which of you change due to their look would make them last less time

I think it's the J hook design

I need some new pads, who's the cheapest and what should I go for? I think I have 5575 front calipers...

Fast road with a couple of trackdays here and there.

Mmmm, how do you tell the difference between the early signs (and nothing to worry about) and 'needs replacing' ?

There might have been a previous thread on this topic.....

On discs I look out for cracks that reach the outside edge of the disc

On pads I wait until I hear metal scraping together :)

On mine the pf lasted 6 track days and started cracking. Simpsons told me to try the ap which they said was new. Not j hook. So far no crack lines at all after 4 track days. J hooks are very good but I dun know if they make them for 5575 calipers.

So no more Pf for me
