Joff i wasnt slating the PVD ones, performance discs are bound to be better han their road going counterparts, i was saying at half the price it aint a bad deal and there is nothing wrong with GM parts!

Chill!!!

I find 2litre brakes to be more than enough for my baby 1.4 :D Also only set me back £70 for callipers (in yellow), Red Dot discs, and Red Dot pads. All only a few weeks old too :thumbs:

Only the pads are EBC - which are better than Vauxhall pads anyway.
If the discs are genuine GM, then what car has 284/288mm 4-stud discs??

How many stud holes are on the LMF discs?
PVD's discs are manufactured from a blank disc to a 4/100 stud pattern.

i think i'm gonna have to blame cheekycorsa for putting me in dept

i doo like the brakes behind them T12's!

Is this spongy feel changed with these braided brake lines then?

I love the feel of my standard sport brakes, their light to control slow brking perfectly smoothly but when pushed hard they stop quite well!

Want larger brakes tho, and at £200 odd seems good value!

i've got them, very good service from steve at LMF, and stop relly well, despite the spongy pedal feel
