Hi Guys Ive just had the Supra put through an M.O.T and they've told me that I need the rear pads and discs doing, only problem is theyre asking £350 for the privelige and I've been made redundant since august so nout alot of funds at hand, Does anyone know of someone with a second hand set they are selling or alternitavely any suggestions on budget priced pads and discs were to get them e.t.c

Thankyou in advance to anyone who offers help

I have still got these, http://www.mkivsupraownersclub.com/f...ad.php?t=13328
But your quite a way away.

Are your pads and brakes really that bad, not just the garage trying to rip you off?
If you do really need them, then do it yourself it's an easy job.

Edit.. Just thought are TT brakes different to n/a?

N/A brakes are the same as the smaller Jap spec ones.

What Martin is trying to say is that the Jap TT uses the same wimpy bakes as the N/A.

Isn't that right Martin.
