Hi

I need to get some front discs and pads for my Legnum quick, as mine have started to grind. Having trouble tracking some down who sells them?

I would like to upgrade to drilled discs and better pads as they were always a bit poo.

I have a Legnum VR-4 on a 1997 'P' plate.

Thanks for any help :2thumbsup

Camskill do them , and I think Rossini do so good drilled /slotted disks ( these are the ones Kieran used)

Cheers John

As John has already said, Camskill are your best bet for getting the parts quickly. However, don't just email them with a request, give them a call. They will be really helpful and should have the parts out on next day delivery.

The Ferodo pads are your best (and most expensive) option, but the Mintex are very good (much better than standard pads) and are a fraction of the price. As for disks, EBC do a grooved/drilled disk which are quite reasonable or you could get the Rossini as John suggested.

sorry bret i did say id do this for you.

here is woodfords details

Website still under construction HERE

For now tel: 01803 863958 and ask for Simon - make sure you tell him you are from Club VR4 for a discounted price. Registered Blitz dealer, but can get just about anything. Popular front brake set up supplier to many CVR4 members.

as said above i think rossini is your best bet, get grooved only for longer live of pads or drilled and grooved for best braking.

I am very foolishly going to attempt to change them tomorrow in the <10oC weather ! Looks pretty straight forward from the guides HERE (http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18330&page=1&pp=20)

Sorry for nicking the last set !
They are very very heavy, and a notice on the ferodos are "FOR RACE USE ONLY" woohoo /rally to work once bedded in !

May look into getting the braided hoses in the near future.

Was the oil servicing kits a good offer or not? tried to google the ATF fluid but couldn't find it else where for sale.

Hmm going to need to pop to halfords in the morning too, they never sent the copperslip replacement stuff, and i need brake disc cleaner.


Anyways thumbs up to camskill! Free add on the site barry?

I've ordered the same pads too so sound good :d

I'm going to have to fit mine in any weather soon as they come too, not able to use car at moment :( My fault I never ordered them sooner /duh so you got the last set, been meaning to sort them out for weeks before hand. Good luck with the fit, should be easy
