Hi,

Been thinking about upgrading my front brake discs to sum drilled and ventilated jobies!!
Can anyone recomend good set of stoppers! Eg Pads, discs or even calipers(altho not sure if i have to upgrade them!)??
Also want the brakes to look better in my alloys as well!

Regards

Chris

256mm disks and ATE calipers, std disks and some ferrodo pads.

£100 for new stuff I think.

Drill disks suffer from cracking issues.

What model C have you got? Does the 1.8 SRi have anything different to the rest of the range?

Get some EBC discs. Look better than standard and have blind drill holes so there's no issue with cracking.
