You guys do like to over spend on pads

Borg and Beck pads, superb German quality, £59 delivered, that's all in front and rear. I can't fault them for fast road use.

Just want to say I'm not associated with them in any way, I simply use them because they're a quality product at a realistic price, and it's nice to deal with a company that doesn't rip you off which is very rare when it comes to GT-R's! They come in a quality hologrammed box, fit perfectly with their own shims, perform perfectly and never squeal.

What's the highest speed you have stopped down from Trev? Do you think they could cope with very high speed stops?

I didn't want to hijack the thread, but yes high speed stops are no problem, there's a long straight around here that regularly sees full on braking from 150 to zero. I'm not a timid braker lol.

Brad, I guess they compare to stock but without the squeal. I've never had any sign of fade with them, I rate them 10/10 for fast road use.

Yes pads are the same on CBA & DBA cars. Rear discs are also the same, fronts are up from 380 to 390, same pads.

You summed the B&B up pretty well Uros, a tiny bit softer bite but stock-strong braking, and absolutely no fade through repeated hard high speed stops. Perfect fit and quality look/feel. Awesome value for money! They would probably sell more if they retailed at 5 times the price, how they do them for that price I cannot fathom. I guess I must be a mug for sharing the info lol

the way they feel softer when you press gently, then really firm up with a hard press, I rather like! feel's nice and controlled.



thank's for sharing the info bud :thumbsup:.. They are very interesting at this price, will be interesting to see how they fare over a few months tho. I'm still sceptical-ish to see if f they work out good over some time, it's like GTR tax reversed!! ha ha

Yes you get a good pedal feel, something the GT-R is good at with not too much servo assistance like many new cars these days.

No probs, I've been through 2 sets now, they performed the same from start to finish
