I am just about to renew my front disks and pads and would like your opinion. I am thinking of going to GSF for a set of brembo disks and textar pads but i have heard that textar pads have a tendency of squealing. What are you experiences and thoughts?

I think textar make the OEM pads, so they should be pretty much the same as you get from the stealers
I put the pagid fast road pads from GSF on mine, they're not a massive improvement over the std pads, though prob. more resistant to fade.
They squeal a little and leave a browny dust too.
Disc wise, I'd get the ATE powerdiscs from eurocarparts, superb - used em on a couple of cars now and only about £25 a corner.
