Hi,

my Williams will reqiure new dics and pads all round soon. Are they the same as 16v brakes?

I'm going for standard dics all round, o.e pads on the back and Mintex pads on the front. With braided hoses and dot 5.1 fluid i think this will be a pretty good set-up for road driving. Any advice would be great.

Chris.

Yes, the brakes are the same as the 16v. As for fluid, try Castrol SRF. It's only rated as DOT4 but is one of the best fluids out there.

Could consider something like brembo max discs on the front, they take a bit more abuse, depends how you drive really. Standard discs/pads on the rear will be fine though.
