312mm uprated discs, pads and fluid

[Triple D]

Hi chaps, well changed my 312's discs and pads about 2 months ago now, and they are warped already, quite bad (im not too bothered as i only payed around £50 all in as i got them at cost through work, so not a massively exspensive mistake )when you brake and take your hands off the steering wheel, it shakes only slightly but alot if you know what i mean.

So i recon my discs are fooked, so am after some info on what others have tried and or rate? I want ideally uprated discs and pads and oil, would prefer grooved discs as i have heard that drilled ones are prone to cracking.

If anyone culd help me it would be much appreciated.

Cheers
Daniel

I got discs from Dubsport drilled and grooved. Have done about 2k on them with no issues

I have all the standard stuff from the 225 TT on mine, pads, discs etc

Try zimmerrman or pagid.

Try speaking to Bill for something. Plenty of choice out there for the 312mm setup as it's used in quite a few cars.

DS2500 pads should be good.

when you get new ones make sure you bed them in jently for a few hundred miles

that way they may last you a bit longer

Not sure how helpfull it is but one of my dad's mates runs a garage and swears by Mintex?

There is a huge contrast between DS2500 and any current Mintex pads - and it's not in the favour of Mintex!

Glad I stuck that down then so I can stay away from them in future when I get round to fitting new on mine

Got 312mm Tarox Sport Japs on the front with seat sports finest calipers, are these AP calipers? Would like some DS2500 pads though.

I can attest to that. Strangely there were no brown trouser moments with you though..

Yes the Seat Sport calipers are made by AP.
