For my 106 Rallye

How much would you pay for the 4 pads and 2 front solid front discs?

I just need to have my mind set at ease.

Binary Shadow

set of pads Ã,£11 dics solid Ã,£16 a pair

that was a mk3 astra tho lol

snellgrove

not much, probably.

the 106 is a lightweight car, and wont need 300mm vented slotted grooved discs or anything special

My Mazda MX-3 was Ã,£300 inc VAT, Labour etc for 4* discs, and 4* pads.. so quite a bit, but the pads were around Ã,£50ish each at the front :O

and Mazda parts prices are astronomical anyway, so yours will be closer to what Binary Shadow has posted id imagine!

Binary Shadow

inc VAT and labour.. see theres your problem ;) shoulda fitted it yourself lol

knighty

Binary Shadows prices sound about right to me for a small car of that age...

but then again it is a limited edition, so maybe a bit more ?

really depends on how many other cars use the same disks/pads :)

Damn, I had my mx3 fronts done for much less. Street pricing on a front and rear Brembo rotors and organic pads is Ã,£80, and perhaps Ã,£120ish if you want ceramic. :shock: No labor, but its not hard to do yourself.

snellgrove

couldnt be bothered :P

I forgot to mention I had new fluid too....

It felt great i must say, (the pedal was so firm, and had great feedback)  for about a week and a half - Then I did an airfield day (~150 miles there) and turned it all back into sponge and brake fade..  

ho hum :lol:  havent done anything silly like that in the Yaris .....yet.

Have been researching into:



though ;)

Theyre the same as the ZX, 309, 306, 205.

Ã,£10 at my local factors - eurocar ripoff and german scam and french probably 12-15 quid

Pads are the same as all the aforementioned and are about Ã,£15 - Ã,£30 depending on what you get - I recommend boggo standard pads.

Poison_UK

Ã,£14 for pads for the 205 and Ã,£35 for some good grooved disks... Calibers where Ã,£136... :)

Youd have saved a fortune if youd got the calipers discs and pads from higher spec 306s/ZXs/Xsara etc

Poison_UK

Well thats without returning them I got Ã,£46 back once I took my old calibers back...

mr_roll

hmm it seems I paid far to much for my pads :(

Poison_UK

Branded ones? Always try Andrew Paiges or Part Co., Im always getting my expensive parts very cheap from Andrew Paiges, always worth asking for a lower price, I just automatically get traders prices now :)

I will from now on, my friends dad works for Andrew Page, but he never replies when I ask him for parts prices.  :?
