Close to fitting my brembo 2-pots to the rear of the VR4, and need some discs (EVO VI fitment). Wondered what other people here are using...?

The choices are:
Brembo discs (I think these are std on the EVO's?) - 200 quid for the pair
Nationals - these are what camskill supply as their EVO rears. - 175 quid for the pair. I might give the suppliers of the club discount fronts a call and see if they can do better)
EBC turbo grooved - 185.65 quid for the pair.

Anyone bought any of these, or have any comments?

Best price I've found for DS2500 rear pads is 60 quid - anyone found better?

I have the EVO VI brembos on my rears, bought them in February, but I'm less than impressed with them. They appear to have warped after my Easter ring exploits and now I have them on the new car they continue to make worrying rubbing noises. They also corroded alarmingly fast.

For £200 I expected something considerably better than this.

I'll be looking for different options next time so keep me informed as to how you get on :thumbsup:

Ok - brembo's scratched. Think I might try the nationals then....

Brembos all round. Nothing but praise so far. Standard discs with pagid blues, came as nearly new with the calipers. VERY noisy without anti-squeal shims! No problems otherwise yet, will let you know after the track session at Silverstone in a few weeks.
