S4 brakes

[skiptowncat]

Anyone know the best place to buy replacement pads and disks? Or any aftermarket upgrades (not expensive bbk)

I have fitted the Pagid discs that car parts for less and red stuff pads. I find they work very well and don't cost the earth.
They seem to sell 2 Pagid front discs for the S4 , I don't know what the difference is. One is for a PR code 1LJ and 1ZT . Looking at Partsbase the only difference I can see is the part number of the caliper looks different. I suspect the logo on the caliper may be the only difference.
I went for the cheap ones £62 for two discs, use the discount to get £5 off so £57.

The red stuff pads are great regardless of what discs you do get, a lot less dust and perform really well.

£92 but with 10% off the performance stuff it works out around £83.

Do you need to cancel the wear sensor with the redstuff's?

Redstuff pads come with wear sensor wires attached.

I got Vented brembos and pads off eBay, looked into so of the cheaper drilled and grooved etc but some of them not getting good write ups so stuck with a good known brand
