nrgizerbunny - what discs and pads you recommend?

i will use one of your 'How To' to change them

its a first time for me to change the discs and pads

[nrgizerbunny]

i would recommend stock discs, pads- ferodo.

[nrgizerbunny]

if you take a wheel off, I suggest the front (so you can turn the steering.)

it is stamped into the caliper.

Is it important if discs are vented or not? I'm a heavy breaker

[nrgizerbunny]

fronts are vented, if you mean drilled, you'll crack them so i would say no.

Only if they are put to serious track-day use. :P I've had drilled discs on other cars and they've been fine.

You should be fine then.

Or up near Cranfield University if I'm working on the GTi.
