hello

I am interesting for front brake disks and i found EBC disks on Funky Pproduct.

http://www.funkyproduct.co.uk/item.php?carNumber=24&carMake=Galant&catTypeNumber=14&catType=Brakes&subcatType=Brake%20Discs&subcatTypeNumber=93

These are the first on the top. But our VR4 (ec5a 98+) is not listed. :huh:

Someone said that we using tha same brake disks as Lancer Evo 5 non-Brembo or Lancer Evo 4. So can i proceed to order them?

Thanks

The EC5A (post-facelift) can fit the same discs as the Evo V onwards (320mm front, 302mm rear), but you'd need 17" wheels to allow room for the Brembo calipers.

Evo IVs and earlier use different hubs with smaller discs and sliding calipers, but I'm not sure whether these are the same as the pre-facelift 8g VR-4s.

the pre-facelift vr4 uses the same ffront discs and pads as the pre-brembo evo 4. This is a fact, proven through me having evo 4 discs and pads on my car.

The rears are different - don't know what they're the same as, if anything.

I don't rate EBC. Why not look at the national racing and ferodo ds2500 combo that a few people have and are happy with?

I use Ferodo DS2500 and i am verry happy with them.
I am looking for the EBC brake disks because the national dealer here is ... :dozey: anyway.

I look for the black diamond brake disks ( http://www.proven-products.co.uk/products/Black%20Diamond%20Discs.htm ) but the price... Drilled & Grooved 294mm £148.00 pair AND Shipping £85.00 ! :rolleyes5

So my last option is the EBC :|

IF anyone else know if these disks(EBC) fits please PM me.
I must be sure 100% before i order them.

Thank you

if you must be 100% sure and are unwilling to trust what I have said/ done, then do some research, like I did before buying mine.
