Defcon5 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 I usually use Pagid parts. Cant fault them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesTdi Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Pagid disks and pads as with the G60 set-up, they're well efficient for the power of a GTI/sport. Anything upgraded will be mental for road use!!!Trust me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkesybaby Posted May 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Well my lupo will be pushing about 140/50 brake next week so will be looking for slight upgrade...Will the pagid stuff live with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoopEd Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Ferodo DS2500 pads up front, standard rear and pagid discs all round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkesybaby Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Where did you get your pagid discs from and which ones I can only find them for the newer cars etc....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelo77 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 G60 set up with Ferodo DS2500 pads up front, brembo pads rear. Brembo max disks all round with goodridge stainless brake linesNo fade at all, the ds2500 can squeek until they are warm but they are still bedding in.buy the best you can afford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkesybaby Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 What fluid do you use with that setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelo77 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Standard vw fluid at the moment, will change to 5.1 if a ever get round to doing a track day. I have the invoices for the parts if you want a break down of costs, it's probably overkill for the road! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkesybaby Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 I've been doin some research n seems discs don't really have a great bearing on braking it's all about pads... but I want discs that can stand up to some good pads don't wanna be chewing them up or warping n havin to change every 500 miles!I've got green stuff pads on now and have had them on my old mk2 golf gti...The pads wore down soooo quick with some generic drilled n grooves discs I had at the time...With these I had them on my 20v and had no issues at all with fade or warp but I've out the exact same set up om the loop and it's warped chronic on the front left it seems...It's a weird one!

LoopEd Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Where did you get your pagid discs from and which ones I can only find them for the newer cars etc....?They might actually be pagid disks, they said they were going to put one or the other on haha......just simple looking disks, they're painted silver so won't rust.
