pads and discs for dc5

[tegger5]

what make and where will i get them?are ep3 discs and pads the same?

 

[lockwood77]

Answer to the second question is definitely no! We have Brembos remember...

Standard pads are available from Honda, about £45 for the fronts. I'm sure you can get the discs too, dunno how much though.

Ferodo DS2500s are often quoted as being good, haven't tried them myself. I found Mintex 1144s very good on the DC2 so will probably go for them when the time comes.

Suppliers - TGM, System-R, maybe Sumo? You can certainly get J's Racing discs from Sumo, they seem quite popular.

Try AP Dixcel Carbon disk and pad, they never fade on track.

Thats what i use for track day and racing.

Rear pad are the same as EP3.

i got oem rear discs and pads from dave johnson delivered for around £200, pads are the same as ep3, discs are not

front oem pads are around £30-40. oem discs are around £200 per corner

as have a few others on here i have just bought some bell type front discs from Paul G and some top spec pads, comes in just shy of £700 inc vat and p+p, but from the reviews well worth it, not to forget that once y ou have the 'bell' all you need replace in future is the disc that secures to it

Has anyone tried endeless brake kits? They are pretty popular in other countries
