New front disc thickness - is this a trick question?

Unread post by andmcit »

I need to order front discs for a 96 vintage Activa and the supplier has
22mm or 26mm thick front discs. As I haven't got my reference here at
work with me I'm guessing 26mm?

Anyone 100% certain fancy straightening this query for me please?
And are Unipart any good on quality? I'm interested in what you guys say
NOT their rep! :lol:

Cheers Mike.

I'll need to get my hands on a VAT number and re-sign in (yet again... :roll: ).

Different slant to the original question though.

Where do you go for a decent price versus quality and performance for
front brakes - one of mine appears to have the bigger discs and the
standard Xant smaller pads fitted - all local Indy maintained too
apparently! :roll:

I guess I'd like Brembo but am just too tight at the mo! :roll: :lol:

They list as being the same as Xant 2.1TD and 2.0 16v although my
v6 one's are truly mindblowing so I'd consider getting sh calipers!!
Anyone done this upgrade on theirs?

Got mine from GSF and came in a brembo box with the 2 dot wear indicators on them. Some standard pads on mine as well, think bendix was on the box maybe. They do ok for most stuff but after a few minutes oftwisty action round here they are sorely out of their range compared to other pads i have had on my old coupe...
