What do I do ? Z sitting in the garage all dusty looking sad bored and lonely.

front pads and discs need replacing now.

I am seriously thinking of a brake upgrade. There is a good group buy on DB power but that means I will have to wait until end feb early march to use the Z.

Maybe I have answered my own question. Decisions Decisions

What make upgrade are you thinking of? What's on the group buy on DBP?

how about these:

very pleased with mine :)

 

edit - just checked listing again - seller rating low!!

Z centre sell the D2 brake systems for a very reasonable amount (cheaper than the Driftworks offer). I'm more than tempted myself, except I've found a hundred other things to waste my money on now.. maybe next year though??

The Group buy is open to anyone. Not just sxoc

I like these as they look like good value

£540 - seems like good value to me. My Mums got D2s on her s14a (maybe I could swap them without her noticing)

 

Like the brembos, will definitely keep my eye on those

I had the DB brake upgrade. the 315mm ones in your 1st link and they made a massive differance, they use M3 discs re drilled to suit our pcd

 

Highly recomend :)
