$1113.
That kit has Bendix pads. There is another kit for just over $1200 that uses EBC Greenstuff pads here. (http://www.rpw.com.au/shop/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=320&category_id=92&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=31)

Hit up your local wreckers. To make things easier, AWD models shared the same front brake setup as the Ralliarts, and they made more than 500 AWD magnas.

Dunno on the first part... Yes the ones from RPW are new. It's only worth the money if you think it is... There's pros and cons both ways.

They wouldn't "perform" any better. Buying used ones you do run the risk of the disc already being skimmed once or maybe twice which will reduce the life of the discs dramatically.

You'd probably be best to ring up RPW and see if they'll sell you a set of rotors. Do you already have the calipers, or what are you going to do for calipers?

well u sed that 2nd hand calipers where ok and rotors were abit iffy,so ill see if i can get 2nd hand calipers and get new rotors

You will probably have a tough time finding the calipers, they don't appear that often and get snapped up quick. Ask David from rpw if he could order an extra set on his next shipment, and sell them to you. He offered to do this for me when I was looking for some (got them off another member in the end).

right about there lol ^^^
to me runnng the risk of the discs being skimmed once or twice drastically reducing longevity
is abit iffy...that is providing im 100% on what it means to hav a skimmed disc. is it when they are machined to regain a smooth surface????

If you're in SA, might be worth giving Eddy wreckers a call. A few months ago he was wrecking a ralliart, which I'm sure the brakes were the first thing to go off, but he knows his **** about magnas and might be able to help you out. Ian is the man you want to talk to.
