Performance Brake Pad and Disc Upgrade in Slough
This is the performance brake page. Replacement of worn parts on a daily car is on our main brake page. This is for drivers who want braking improved beyond standard, either because they have remapped the engine and the brakes can no longer match it, or because they are taking the car on a trackday and stock pads will fade by the third lap. We do both at our Slough workshop every week for owners across Berkshire and the Heathrow corridor.
An upgrade does not have to mean a four-figure big brake kit. Often the right pad compound on the standard caliper is most of the answer, with a fluid flush and discs to match. We will tell you honestly what your car actually needs based on how you drive it.
What we fit and recommend
- EBC Yellowstuff, Redstuff and Bluestuff pads. Yellow for fast road, Red for daily uprate, Blue for trackday. Each does its job and none of them are right for every car
- Ferodo DS2500 and DS3000 pads. the classic trackday pads for owners who want one set that survives a full day at Castle Combe or Donington
- PFC, Pagid and Performance Friction compounds. for serious trackday and time-attack cars. We will tell you when you actually need them, not before
- Grooved and dimpled performance discs. EBC USR, Brembo Max, DBA T2 and T3. Real benefits on heat dissipation, real downsides on pad wear. Honest pros and cons
- Brembo and AP Racing big brake kits. where the standard caliper is genuinely overwhelmed. 4-pot and 6-pot upgrades for M cars, RS3, Golf R, GR Yaris, Type R
- Castrol SRF and Motul RBF600 / 660 fluid. high dry and wet boiling points, mandatory for trackday use. Flushed properly with the brakes bled in the right sequence
Cars we upgrade brakes on most weeks
Honda Civic Type R FK2, FK8 and FL5. Ford Focus RS MK3 and Fiesta ST MK7 / MK8. Audi RS3 8V and 8Y, S3 8V. VW Golf R MK7.5 and MK8, Golf GTI Clubsport. BMW M2 G87, M3 G80, M140i and M240i. Toyota GR Yaris. Renault Megane RS. The same cars again and again at our Berkshire workshop, all needing slightly different recipes for fast road vs trackday vs time-attack.
How we approach a brake upgrade properly
We start with the question of what you are actually trying to fix. Brakes that feel wooden on the road, brakes that fade at the end of a trackday, brakes that squeal cold, brakes that warped after one summer of Slough commuting, or brakes that cannot stop the car after a Stage 2 remap. Each of those points to a different fix. We will not sell you a big brake kit when a pad and fluid change does the job, and we will not sell you a pad and fluid change when the caliper is genuinely undersized.
