   they're good, but you should be able to get those cheaper. i got a set of vented mintex discs and pads for about £27

   When you say upgrading what benifits do they give me? Also can they fit my 1.4 furio.

   Just what I was about to say, the link in the first post is for solid discs and therefore will not fit.

    they are more expensive because they are vented instead of solid. should fit a furio fine as they use the same calipers as the VTR and S.
