price will vary wildly for standard discs, if you after uprated grooved/drilled etc... discs then give gsmotorsport a ring

I've got EBC green stuff pads and drilled and grooved discs all round. They are canny but I had problems with brakes today!!! Smoke...Smell...LOTS OF HEAT</font>

Think I have a sticky caliper piston!

They cost about £140 for all from ABP Motorsport i think. Or I could just be way out! Ask Boz he'll remember. We fitted the back ones in about an hour
