I've used the ATE Powerstop (Powerdisc? I don't remember what they were
called) on my 5KCSTQ.  These had the grooves in them that looked like the
atomic symbol.  I bought them from Foreign Automotive parts in Flint, MI,
who advertises in European Car.  They can be reached at 800 728 1601 or
810 742 1600.  Ask for Tim Leclair, but if he isn't there, anyone there
can help you. 

You can try mentioning my name.  I'm not sure if it will do you any good. :-)
