Hi all,just had a quote from vauxhall £158 inc vat.Is this a good price for genuine or should i just buy cheap,Dean.

They used to be around £100 on Trade Club .... have they gone up a bit?

Having been messed about in the past with pattern discs on a Senator, I'd tend to buy OE ..... less chance of problems later on.

Brembo ones on offer at ecp ( use the code  "weekend 55" ) about £130  they also have pagid ones cheaper.

For that small a difference I'd go genuine... Aftermarket is a minefield with even known brands being a poor match for the job required. The TC and OE discs and pads are proven on many cars and even survive TB's driving style!

Thanks for that mate,just been on ecp web site.They don't do a disc and pad set,and the pads they have will fit my car.But the discs are vented i need solid,so it looks like i will have to use vauxhall.I looked on ebay but none of them are compatible to my car.Dean.

I've had problems with Pagid supplied by ECP.  Not sure if Pagid quality has gone down the shitter, or if ECP are up to their well known dodgy tricks of selling fake parts. Either way, had to through them away after 6 weeks, and put some TC ones on instead.

Stupidly, rears seem to be more expensive 

Being a 3.0, I would sincerely hope op means rears

I would chip in at this point and say we sell Vetech from GaySF and have had no returns / warranties on them. And very well priced.

1,000,000 percent steer clear of drivemaster stuff. By far the worst brakes we've ever fitted (i.e. Fitted on 4 motors and 100% warranty claims  )

Your front discs should most definitely be VENTED

Front discs should be vented 

Rears also vented on 3.2/2.6(?)) only
