    I have the eBay grooved discs and yellowstuff pads good setup so far. I also put new calipers on. I think the main cause of warped discs are down to calipers not operating smooth. The reason I changed mine.

      You sure you're getting the grooved discs? If you are, that's silly cheap for the quality if what you get. Mine have bedded in nicely and other than the monoblock noises, they're sweet. The black coating should stop corrosion on the hub too

      Yellowstuff pads are surprisingly good nowadays too, I run them on my Clio.and for the cash, they're great.

        Yellowstuff not cheap for the hp2 caliper £150 was the cheapest I could find. 4 pads per caliper. Discs are good quality vs price under a £100 delivered. Can't complain......
        My problem is the company I bought new calipers sent me one correct caliper and the other was for the 321x30 disc. So has pad overhang. I need to find another caliper hence the signature. Most of the caliper is the same apart from the mounting holes being slightly different.

        Company cant supply the proper caliper as they can't find the match for the other side. It took them a month to send the right side. Leading/ trailing........

        So running with a new caliper on drivers side and old on the passenger side. Not ideal but still work good.

          I asked for 8 grooves and the black coating. Let's hope they get it right.

          I've currently got trextar pads in the 993 calipers so hopefully they'll bed in nicely

                    ...as will the finish on your alloys unless you take some wheel cleaner with you

                    I'm sure the Textars are formulated primarily with dust production in mind

                      Haha it might even make these alloys look better!

                      Some brake cleaner is an.essential item to take I think....

                        Camskill just confirmed they were ordered with 8 grooves and black coating, so hopefully its just the Bargin of the day!
