Brake upgrade - where to buy the bits from

E46CSL · 30-03-2012, 04:27 PM

I am thinking of fitting goodridge hoses & fitting Pagid fast road pads (RS421) - would appreciate pointers as to where buy these from at the most sensible price.

Cheers

Hi, definitely one place NOT to go to would be Thorney, I'm still waiting for mine, from nearly three weeks ago. I should have gone to Simpsons in the first place, so I'd recomment them.

I had similar issues a couple of years back - i asked if they had some RS29 - got the reply yeah we've got them. Super! I ordered them two weeks in advance of a Spa trackday, one week later they still haddnt arrived so i rang and asked where they were, turns out they were still waiting for them to come into stock

Cancelled the order and went elsewhere, never shopped there again since!

Ok made contact with Questmead. They do not stock the Pagid 421, but can supply the 42.

Which one is the best favoured fast road pad on here?

Anyone come across the Brembo sport pad?

I like Performance Friction PF-Z as a fast road pad, failing that Pagid RS29's are really good, though they are squaky and very dusty.

There has been some bad press on here about Ferodo DS2500's as a track pad, but as a road pad they are also really good imho.
