I have standard discs on my 2005 SR3 - does anyone know what compound I need and is there a particular size/code I need to ask for when looking for some of these ?
Thanks

I assume there the same as my PR6, if they are performance friction 01, I've got the part number at home I'll let you know later.

Like JP says, PF, Compound 01; apologies for stating the obvious, but make sure you get the right 'shape' pads for the actual calipers on your car; think the PR6 has always run Hi-Specs as standard whereas the SR3 started out on Wilwoods orginally; the pads for HS & W are a completely different 'shape'.

Doh I forgot about the wilwoods, well if they are the same as on a prosport I used Hawk Blue if you have a DT catalogue should be a picture of the pad you need.

Try Steve at Mode Performance (Silverstone) 01327 855999. I get all our pads from him and hes generally cheaper than PFC and other suppliers. He was telling me today that radical are intending numbering pads for the race series competitors to ensure purchase though them and logging of sets used!!

JP: you doing anything this year?
