Default New Discs & Pads

Need some for my XR3i, '89 mk4. Anyone recommend a good set? I'm thinking of going down the line of EBC turbo grooved dics's, wit Greenstuff pads, braided hoses. I have Zetec S 15" rims on her currently.

Rally Design sell good quality discs, at sensible prices. Use their Kevlar pads or greenstuffs.

i wouldnt go overboard or pay through the nose for pricey brake discs and pads ... the standard stuff is all well and good for an XR3i ive found and you can get the lot for well under £100

Greenstuff (V4) pads are crap, their REDSTUFF CERAMIC is vastly better and still works better from cold than greenstuff.
I have a car with greenstuff and one with redstuff ceramic, I would not even waste my energy opening a box of greenstuff if it were given to me, unless you drive like a grandad all the time even then they are still not much good.
