Bloke sells 4 stud V6 discs and calipers for £200 on MIg (plain). I would advise getting vented discs.

Groved, vented, the same thing to me (yeah i know u can get vented and single discs )

Drilled wears the pads down quicker.
Groved just gives the brakes extra cooling

How many high quality brake kits (AP Racing, Brembo etc) do u see with drilled discs as well as groves. Either get groves OR drilled.

dont buy from pvd they charge to much for the v6 kit, i got mine from VTunning, 200 for New calipars, New disks and pads and u can upgrade to EBC disks (which i got) too

however they dont sell braided hose lines last time i checked so get them from anywhere, i got goodridge ones
