Wasn't that a game - how many spots have I got 2 spot...?

Thiery,

Hi Spec do a very good 4 pot set for the front.
As for the rears, I would not bother with discs, drums are fine.
I raced an Avon for 3 years and had more than enough brakes with Hi Spec front green stuff pads) and Ford drum rears, and still had loads of meat left on the rear shoes.
