My current solution, working well so far:

Had a look at mine, it is shiny in that area (also on left side of throttle and clutch). Doesn't seem to be wearing overly though.

Very easy to fit yourself. There are detailed threads around, but the gist is: Remove wheel. Undo bottom caliper bolt, loosen top caliper bolt (both 14 mm). Swing caliper up off brake pads. Remove old brake pads (they'll pull free with a bit of effort), marvel at how trashed they are. Install new pads. Drop caliper back down (you will need to wind the pistons back at this point, I use a piston windback tool, but anything that will give some leverage will do; keep an eye on brake fluid level in the reservior). Bolt caliper back up (torque to 19 ft-lb), refit wheel. Done! As for life, mine seem to be quite hard wearing for such an effective pad; they're doing much better than my Cosworth Streetmasters.

I like that Momentum is roughly the same price as Shell Fuelsave in my area. That's a decent saving.

More likely the extra heat from the supercharger overheated the matrix and caused it to break down.

I had one of those skid plates, I did really like it, as it's not the right size (tend to fall off the edges), and it gives and jiggles the other foot when you rest your heel on it. Separate pads are better for me, and rubber pads are better than metal for comfort.

Weather Tech are available for the front for LHD cars (same fitment as Scion FR-S), but only rear mats for RHD. I'm currently using some 5mm rubber which is stuck to my mats with velcro as replaceable heel pads. I went through 3 mm rubber in less than half a year. If this doesn't work well I'll have to put in a metal backplate or something!

I'd go aftermarket, you can pick some up for under £100 - not worth saving a bit of money now to have problems later.

My drivers side mat has two heel holes in it from normal shoes; they are not very hard wearing.

I just fit the stock one up front on the day. It's beefier than most you can get online which I rather like if I'm having my car towed by it!

That's because you're a lunatic with your brakes. Mine lasted fine at Bedford.

I'm using Hawk HPS with mine. Happy with them - low dusting and quiet.

Indeed, and you end up with just over twice the oil pressure drop, which isn't great!

I costed yours up at around £600 some months back. Going for the 160mm saves about £40, which makes it very comparable to this Cusco unit. You only get 55% of the cooling capacity with the 160 mm unit though.

Agreed, if I'm going to fluff one, I want to fluff up the rev match, not the braking.

I was with Zenith and they were fine TBH. They paid up pretty quickly when my car was written off, offer wasn't anything special, but was sufficient for my Gap insurer so I just accepted it. They transferred the policy to my new car after the write off too. Bear in mind that most people only post a review when they have something to grumble about. One thing to note is that they're not particularly mod friendly, so if you are planing to do more to your car, they may be a poor choice.

I do the foot roll too - big toe on the brake, edge of foot on the throttle. Definitely takes a bit of practice, but it will come with time.

@Ade I considered it but it's quite pricey for what it is, like most Cusco stuff.

If the blocks are big enough then it wouldn't be able to move enough to roll off.

They have locking bars to prevent it falling if the hydraulics fail. If you're worried you could always pop some axle stands under the car or blocks under the wheels.

I think next track day I'll have to do some comparisons of with and without the G-adjust. I mainly like it for road use though for the reasons Lauren has said.

Apparently they do a G-force module for it which makes it active... As far as EDFC goes, it seems to improve roll and such, but how much of that is placebo is hard to tell without actually testing. Pitch under acceleration and braking is definitely reduced though.

I have an aftermarket knob which is about a quarter turn off alignment when tight... I just superglued it on, problem solved.

I think it's the same as Tesco; they buy it off Greenergy. Both Shell and Tesco use close to the maximum 5% ethanol in their fuel. I've not heard of inconsistencies with Tesco fuel and Greenergy publish fuel analysis reports on their website so it's easy to check.

Mine are also ebay cheapies. I bought a string of ten, used two each side for the footwells and the rest in the boot. I now have a super bright boot.
