Recommendations for AW11 performance pads

Post by Mr-Paulio »

Hey team,
Just as per the subject. I'm looking for recommendations for performance brake pad replacements for my 89 AW11.
As I cant get an earlier appointment for a cert than August. I thought in the meantime I would do performance pads, fluid and braided lines. As I want to make sure the stock brakes perform as well as possible.
Thanks in advance for your help :D

Znoelli

Mine stops brilliantly with them; sensitive pedal, will lock up warmed up RE001s, little noisy but I don't care

Yep and they are relatively inexpensive. Hit up [email protected] for a set of Znoelli 500 series pads, Paul. Be sure to ask for the MR2 Club discount. I've been using those pads for years now and you can't even cook them on a race track. Brilliant on the road too. While you are at it get some TRD brake fluid from Nick as well. It's the same as Motul 600 race fluid but at a fraction of the cost. Great stuff, can't beat it. That's my opinion anyway. :mrgreen:
