Hey guys any interest in a good upgrade for std VR4 brakes?

I have a set of brand new Carbotech pads, XP8(f) and AX6(r), Zonelli slotted front rotors, and standard rear rotors.

I am thinking of a figure of around the $900 mark as the pads are worth over $700 with the $$ the way it is and the discs are $200 for the slotted and $120 for the rears. :)

I am thinking of going on another direction, and it isnt brembo's lol.

Am open to realistic offers as well. :) Have just worked out that the pads cost about $730NZD including shipping and GST.

Quinton, the Carbotech pads are simply amazingly good and will stop any car from any speed again and again. If you aren't tracking your car though, I'm not sure if the Carbotech's are worth the money. I was lucky and bought mine at US$0.80 so got mine cheaper.

Will they bolt straight on to a PFL? Just failed a warrant on brake pads :/

Yes they will. They will also fit onto an EVO 4!

By the way, that car is running XP8's at the front and they hadn't faded.
