Buying new Pads + Discs
Posted: Fri Sep 19, 2008 4:23 pm
Hi guys, been here for a while but haven't had a need to post before..
Im about to buy new pads+discs for the fto, and I've been finding a lot of places are charging through the roof for rear discs!
The fronts are pretty cheap (same as Magna), but the rear discs are f&kng expensive as!
Cheapest I was quoted was $165 each for rear discs (DBA), or $105 for chinese-spec ones.
Is this normal pricing, or is there some shops that sell 'cheaper' brake gear for FTO's?
By the way, im located in Melbourne
While on that note, whats a good pad upgrade? I was thinking Bendix ceramic front + bendix CPT rear.
Cheers,
Alex
