DO NOT GET A GREEN ENCLOSED

Get a BMC - I've got a Green Enclosed and I'm not impressed by the fit or quality, it's cracked in so many places it's not even funny!

2. I've got Tarox 285mm discs with Mintex pads. Defo get some 285mm discs and stick Mintex pads with 'em cos they're the best you can get

Also - MAKE SURE YOU GET BRAIDED HOSES, it makes more of a difference than you would imagine.

3. The roll bar is supposed to make a lot of difference to initial turn in so it would be well worth getting one, also it settles the rear end down. My back end was all over the place at Silverstone!!

were bouts did u get the tarox discs from keir and how much were they? i think i might be getting some gti-6 discs and caliper spacers to save some money, and mintex 1144 pads too

hehe

not going for a enclosed kit just yet getting the anti-roll bar early next month

oh ive got braided hoses already

cheers for the info too

The Tarox discs were on there when I got the car - they were fitted at Severnside, but to be honest they're the same as the Hi-Spec equivelant.

Good idea on the 306 GTi-6 calipers, that's what I'm getting next year. The GTi-6 discs are 285mm so in my view you might as well go for brand new performance discs.

If you want some a bit cheaper, it might be worth considering the Goat Developments 283mm disc conversion

Anti roll bar is a good idea
