<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'></div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->green stuff really start to work above 300degrees C<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->Green Stuff are designed to work from cold are they not..? I though it was only Red Stuff and Yellow Stuff that had a higher than ambient start range..? That said, I know a lot of people who complain that they don't work from cold.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'></div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Think im gonig to go for Black Diamond Disks and pads.

The braking is fine but they clunk around in the caliper under braking as they are slightly too small. Also, when I eventually removed them the friction material had completely come away from the backing plate on one of them.

Whilst you are at it I highly recommend braided hoses. You will notice more difference with the hoses than you will with the discs and pads and the pedal will feel much more solid. I've got them on the bike too and the feel is so much better...

I have green stuff pads and they do need to warm up a bit to get working i found, my mate also says the same who has greenstuff on his elise.

I have BD grooved disc's and BD pads, the best thing I did was to fit braided hoses, what a difference:D

I don't unless I have to, Brakes are cheaper and alot easier to change than a clutch!

BTW, I use ATE Oval Slotted discs all the way around, and OEM Pads, Have NEVER had brake fade.

You are quite true, as I need to change my clutch at the moment. But,hey where the all fun driving comes from

[johnny_adidas]

best place to get a set of braided hoses? and roughly how much?

[swchoi]

I got one from LMF, but you can try rally design.
