Mintex brake pads
Those of you using Mintex brake pads
What part numbers should I be asking for?
The front are 240mm vented from a 2.0 ltr sierra.
The rear are non vented discs from again a sierra.
I don't want to order the wrong ones and have to send them back.

Mintex have a big web site with a catalogue section you can search
As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!

Be careful buying Mintex pads. I'm not saying they are bad, quite the opposite, but they had a change of factory, and they had 'some
confusion with setting up the new machinery', (Mintex guys words), resulting in a lot of pads being machined with thinner than normal friction
material on the steel back plates.
I know RD had some like this for the Wilwood calipers, and there are a lot more similar out there.
The more expensive Wilwoods have better friction characteristics anyway, but may have to be ordered in. And remember, there are a number of different
types of 'SMART' pads. RD don't let you know this, and only sell what is most popular, but not necessarily the best for stopping
power.
Cheers,
Nev.
