Good thanks :thumb1: Needs a service & new brakes on the front so going to upgrade them :D

Cool :thumb1:

I made a huge mistake with my brakes mate. When i bought the car i replaced them with new ones and put the standard ones on. I should have put the esseesse ones :frusty5:

Now i cant afford to change them again :sad3:

But i didnt know i was going to upgrade the car so thats why i put the standard ones on again :embarrassed:

Its all the track days fault :firing10::numberone:

:lol: im having a problem finding pads for mine. The discs are the same as on the 3.2 & 2.4 159 & Brera's but the pads are difrent so i can't use 159 brake pads as they don't have locating pegs on the back to stop them rattling which the GQV pads have on them. Nobody seems to do upgraded pads for mine so ive had to try & find out which other cars use these calipers. Pretty sure its the same as an Evo 8 & also i found its the same as a Volvo S 60 AWD but i can't be 100% sure they have the pegs on the back so they don't rattle :(

Tempted just to buy some & hope for the best :lol:
