Are these Brembo discs better than standard? Anydraw backs? I would like to upgrade my standard brakes a little but can't afford the big brake kits at the moment.
Can anyone recommend these or not. Price sounds nice.
Cheers,
Steve.

I use the X-Drilled, vented Zimmerman discs on front of mine....
I always forget what retail prices are cos i never pay them
Hi Ant, How do you rate them? I had the same on my Cab and was v.satisfied with them but it wasn't exactly high performance. What pads do you run with them?

I use the Pagid fast road pads, they arent bad, altho i do suffer a lot of fade with how i drive!!
At one point when in France with mates last year had to chuck the anchors (more like fishing hooks cos they are so pants) on, and scrubbed from 140+ down to 70ish, didnt like that at all and shot dust out both wheels apparently.
They are better than just solid discs etc, but i would seriously recommend a proper upgrade, im gonna be doing mine as soon as i settle on something to fit

Are you going down the monoblock or big red route???

Undecided yet, was lookin at going the 996 monoblock route, but then these latest Brembo 6 pots posted on the brakes section look v interesting too...
Ant,
a very handy solution would be the Zimmermann disc. Are you saying that these with a good pad and the standard calipers can produce a significantly better deceleration that the standard setup? I checked the German Zimmerman website and there it is for a normal price. Looks very nicely crafted.

Being honest, the first thing i done when i got the car was change them to the zimmerman stuff anyways, so i never drove the car with the original setup to give you an exact comparison.
