[QUOTE="Noesph, post: 179390, member: 2427"] I need some new brakes soon, I know there is a thread on here already but its more about performance set up. My car is most likely not going to go on a track day. I do go on a hoon around the country roads at the weekends, but during the rest of the week it just drives around town. I've been reading about race pads, that a lot of them need heat in them to work properly. But I need brakes that work well from cold, as I'm more likely need to brake hard when some eejit pulls out in front of me a mile up the road, when my brakes are cold because I haven't touched them yet. So in short I do country road driving/hooning at weekends (when race pads would be good and hot). But A road and town driving (With lots of stop, start traffic) during the week when the pads will be cold a lot of the time. I was looking at the brembro Max disc or HC disc with DS2500 pads (as in the other thread) but how good are they when cold? The cold bite is the important bit with me. Also I've read there very dusty. Or I could stick with genuine Renault parts, but I think there a bit of a rip off at £82 for the discs, £39 for the pads. [/QUOTE]
