Front pads

Warrington guy · October 5, 2016

Hi guys, I'm desperate for front pads . Not interested in genuine Lexus as they seem to make my front wheels so dusty .just wondering what you guys are running on ?

brembo from europarts , got them through a friend on his trade account £30 . 10 min job to swap.Cant fault them.

Hi Warrington Guy,

Gumball3000 is spot on. I just changed my Rear (not Front though) brake pads and discs last saturday via my local mechanic. He charged me a total of around £160. The breakdown is as follows:

brembo brake discs (Comes in a pair) Around £40

brake pads - Around £40 each

Labour Charge - £40

I am sure you can get the parts a little cheaper as per what Gumball300o said.

Had some Hawk fast road pads fitted on the front recently. Supplied by Cambridge Motorsports I believe. £150 inc delivery. Work well and dust a lot less than OEM.

I have been running yellowstuff pads for a while.

Great on track and on road.

Little squealy before bedded in but a lot less noisy than my friends 458 with Ceramics ;-)

Warrington guy · October 26, 2016

Euro parts . Behind maccies on winick rd .

sofasurfer · October 27, 2016

I'm going to need some brembo pads on my ISF soon and Euroscarparts only seem to list Pagid pads. Has anyone got a part number for the brembo ones?

Warrington guy · October 27, 2016

They definitely sell Brembo pads . Just bought front pads from them £62 . Will try and find box they come in and post part number

Just to help, EuroCarParts are running a Halloween Sale with 30% off.

This means the following:

brembo front discs move from £109.99 each (£219.98 for the pair) to £153.99
Pagid pads (until someone can get the brembo equivalent) move from £59.99 to £41.99
Drops the total from £279.99 to £195.98

Not to be sniffed at. And the sale is on for the next 3-days (until the end of the 31st October)

dr_rick · October 28, 2016

From looking at NextDayBrakes, they have brembo front pads with a part no of P8314

steve2006 · October 28, 2016

Eurocarparts seem to be like DFS with a constant sale, last weekend 30% off, this weekend Halloween discount, next weekend....big bonfire night weekend discounts?

dr_rick · October 28, 2016

Don't knock it. I looked yesterday following my service 'revelations' and they didn't have a sale on, so it's a pleasant surprise.

dr_rick · October 28, 2016

ECP currently doing the brembo pads for a tenner more than the Pagid.

Worth it?

All I can see when I put my reg in, is Pagid pads.

dr_rick · October 28, 2016

I know, I found the same. I phoned my local store having given up on the online chat person ever completing my request. The guy said he has a separate system to the one we use / see, but he could see the brembo pads against my reg no, despite my view only giving Pagid pads.

His response was that he could do next day collection of brembo pads (and I'll add brembo discs) for £52.90 taking into account the current Halloween promotion. They're £68.77 under normal pricing.

Now, the cynic in me kicks in because the next cheapest price I can find is from Amazon:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00IM1KZE0/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=75VTKQFI7WN2&coliid=I2EEVIVDSGNH5K

Which is £134 delivered from Spain. ECP are half that price!?!

I got my brembo pads a few months ago on my mates trade account for £30 , so it seems about right.

I was a bit dubious when my mate said to go and pick them up and they will be £30 , i was expecting the wrong pads and some no name ones. But they were in a brembo box , had brembo stamped all over the pads and fitted perfect .

I thing the shock everyone suffers with is the price the stealers want for them , daylight robbery.

dr_rick · October 28, 2016

Fair enough. Might just get the bundle ordered to make use of the discount. Just seemed a bit weird that I could look online and see £200+ for brembo pads, then £130 ish, then ECP step in and go for £53. You can understand the double take.

They've put the details aside against my reg no in their system. I said I'd put some other elements aside and come back to them.
