My OCD hasn't let me use anything other than Ceratec on my rebuild for, quite literally, everything If the pins and springs come out, I'll reuse them,and refit with a smear of ceramic on them to aid future work But I always have a set on the shelf, just incase they don't come out |

Andy, this is where I got just the Redstuff pads from for my RRS1 S/C if it's of any use, as they are the same pads as the 6 pot Brembos on the RRS2, got the rears there as well but obviously they are not the same as the RRS2, redstuff are the only pads I found that shut up that dammed annoying squeal the S/C's suffer from. They even shipped them to NZ for me. https://www.motorbling.com/products/5b87d6...t-Road-Pad Cheers Col |

Thanks for the link Col,I’m only wanting the low dust pads for the front as the rears aren’t too bad for the dust. Andy.

In that case then I’ll do both fronts & rears.Its now which discs do I use as Brembo are a decent price on Autodoc £53.10 for rears & £50.94 for the fronts.The only problem with the Brembo’s is every time I wash the car this discs end up with a rust coating on them & that’s why I was going to for the EBC hopefully they don’t get the rust coating after washing.

I've used Britpart drilled and grooved discs. Zinc coated to prevent rust build up, which I've also painted with HT paint, to hide the bling |

Rears are definitely changed on l494 as it uses the main pad for handbrake.
