most people use mintex discs and pads, fairly cheep off ebay and seem to get good rep. i have brembo 3g slotted discs but they are kind of expensive and theyve been on the car 2 years with no problems to the disc, and in that time gone through a set of red stuff pads mainly from where the caliper used to stick so they have taken some heat and beatings and survived.

I think Mintex are the most popular amongst members, for the quality/price combination.

I'm not sure what I have on mine (only owned it a month) but will find out. They are vented/grooved/drilled ones though, and look virtually brand new to me.

EDIT: I am running MTEC disks and MINTEX pads, and they are only a few months old.

I think 3-4 months? Or thereabouts anyway.
