supply information for mintex m1144 to go with wilwoods
Hi all.
I hope you are all out enjoying the weather. I am going on my second trackday in 2 weeks at llangdow next weekend. Whoop whoop!!
While checking the car over i noticed i have naff all front pads left. I want to replace like for like. That is mintex m1144 for wilwood power lite
calipers. The only supplier i can find is rally design and they are changing £70. I guess postage is on top too.
Seems steep. Any advice with where I can get them cheaper?
Cheers all.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

RD are the cheapest. I tried three Mintex stockist I deal with; Two couldn't supply and the other was more expensive than RD even allowing for
RD's postage and my trade discount.

Rally designs in Kent, take a drive down. They are near me, but never open when I'm at home!  Don't open weekends either.
They are the cheapest still

Ill call them today and get some delivered.
I still cant believe that it's 70 quid a pop. Hey ho, I guess I need some!!

I'm confused. I have powerlites and used these pads from RD but they are £50!

Are there more variants that fit the powerlites??

Catches a lot of people out. When I used to sell bits and pieces on bulk buys I was asked many atime why I wasn't any cheaper, till I pointed
out they had to add vat and postage to RDs prices.
