    It's awaiting a good kicking! My Nova has had a rough and neglected year and deserves some TLC and a track day to prove herself again.

    I ran black diamond vented discs and black d pads, the disc were pretty good but the pads were too soft and gave really poor feedback even on my old Nova sr.

    I put standard gm pads in and they were miles better, I was running 256 brakes at the time.

    thanks for the advice. Have the 256 BD discs on with ATE calipers. The pads were from a scrapper so they need changing.

    Have bought super doper minted pads years ago with the standard brake set up. Ended up with GM ones then as in the end, the mintex were way too hard.

    Anyone had experience of the brembo ones?

    I had Greenstuffs when they were first introduced back in 1864 on the 16V astra ate caliper & vented disks; thought they were really good.
