gsf ones are fine...obviously the more you pay the better,i like ebc but they too are expensive. theres some nice drilled/grooved sets on ebay though for ok money!

Pagid from ECP. These are cheap and OE quality, and Pagid is one of the world's biggest manufacturer's of brake discs and pads, and are the OE supplier to many makes.
Drilled/grooved discs won't improve braking performance in the slightest.

for an unmodified standard e30 the cheaper motor factor discs will be sufficient.unless your one of the type who prefers paying overinflated dealer prices for much the same parts because it has the bmw stamp on the packaging?
