Jetpilot Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Very happy with my Mtecs (a trader on here) Pads will come down to your driving, i.e any trackdays etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sianny Posted March 30, 2016 Author Share Posted March 30, 2016 No track days, just my daily commute along the a55 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I really wouldnt bother with drilled/grooved or dimpled then Just go std on pads and discs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bizizl Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) Very happy with my Mtecs (a trader on here) I'm also happy with mine. I believe they're the OEM discs rebranded (and drilled/grooved etc if that option's selected) I went with the standard brembo pads. Came as a deal from mtec on ebay. At the time it was £300 all in! If you really want to 'upgrade', drilled discs will crack sooner so I would go dimpled and grooved. They look class too. Plenty of threads on here about which brake pads to use for what etc Edited March 30, 2016 by bizizl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahameJ Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I have fitted MTEC drilled and grooved discs. Combined with Ferodo Premier FDB1561 front and FDB1562 rear pads. There is a noticeable improvement over the stock Brembos for road use with good initial bite and progressive braking power, wet or dry. They look good too. I never had a problem with drilled discs cracking in my racing days, and I'm not worried about it now. Mercedes fit drilled discs to their SLK sports cars, so I guess they don't consider cracking a problem either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bradders- Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 +1 here for the mtecs! Have them on mine with minted pads. Came to under £250 all in buying from different traders online Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavenDW Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 If these are the same as what MTEC are selling on their site then this seems a good price for all around the car considering it comes with a set of pads. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350z-350-z-MTEC-Dimpled-Grooved-Black-Brake-Discs-Front-Rear-Brembo-Pads-/400753590728?hash=item5d4ec681c8:g:fa4AAOSwGiRTrXl4 Without even shopping around that seems decent.
