Recommended brake pads for a 4kq and good source for ATE Powerdiscs



I'm using ATE Powediscs and Ferodo 'sport' pads on my '86 4kcsq and am very
happy with them. I borrowed a friends G-tech pro and did some 60-0 before
and afters. Average run before was 170 feet. Average run after was 135 feet.
Admittedly the brakes were in bad shape before the Ferodo's, Powediscs, and
stainless lines, but 35 feet is about 3 car lengths!

I bought all the parts from German Parts and Restoration, www.gprparts.com.

Subject: Recommended brake pads for a 4kq and good source for ATE Powerdiscs

hey all, just wondering what a good pad would be for a 4kq.  Both my
father and i need to do a whole brake job on our cars, so its time to do
some upgrading of the brake system.

I have heard that metalmaster pads are good all around pads, except for
that little bit of warm up each day.

But anyway, any opinions and also where is a good cheap source for the
ATE powerdiscs...
