Performance Friction pads

We offer "the absolute best brakes on the market". We have previously supplied these pads to fit only Alfa Romeos fitted with 4-pot Brembo brake calipers, but we can now offer Performance Friction brake pads for all Alfa Romeos including those without 4-pot Brembo callipers. We have had these new pads specially made and they are available from Autolusso only.

Performance Friction Pads 330mm - Fast Road Z-rated

These Performance Friction pads are for 2004-on 147 GTA, 156 GTA and GT 3.2 models, and earlier 147 and 156 GTA models which have been retro-fitted with the larger Brembo callipers. These pads also fit some 159, Brera and Spider models, see below:

    • Alfa Romeo 147 GTA
    • Alfa Romeo 156 GTA
    • Alfa Romeo GT 3.2
    • Alfa Romeo Brera 2.2 S, 2.4 JTDm and 3.2 V6 JTS
    • Alfa Romeo 159 2.2 Ti, 2.4 JTDm and 3.2 V6 JTS

£170
£280 for supply and fitting, including high temperature brake fluid

Performance Friction Pads 305mm - Fast Road Z-rated

Performance Friction pads in the Fast Road Z-rated compound are now available for the smaller 305 Brembo 4-pot callipers. These are not available from anywhere else, as we have these manufactured for our application by Performance Friction in America. These pads are made from the same compound as the popular Z-rated pads used on the 330 mm pads (see above). These give a massive improvement over the standard pads.

    • Alfa Romeo 147 GTA
    • Alfa Romeo 156 GTA
    • Alfa Romeo GTV 3.0 - 3.2
    • Alfa Romeo Mito 1.4TB (155) and QV

£170
£280 for supply and fitting, including high temperature brake fluid

Performance Friction Pads 305mm - Race / Endurance Road

Performance Friction Race / Endurance Road pads are available for the smaller 305 Brembo callipers and give immense stopping power and are ideal for the 'no-compromise' driver. These pads can have a tendency to squeal and the brake dust can damage the finish on your alloy wheels so they are not for everyone, that said they are the best brake pads money can buy and if you want ultimate stopping-power there is no alternative.

    • Alfa Romeo 147 GTA
    • Alfa Romeo 156 GTA
    • Alfa Romeo GTV 3.0 - 3.2
    • Alfa Romeo Mito 1.4TB (155) and QV

£195
£305 for supply and fitting, including high temperature brake fluid

Performance Friction Pads 284mm - Fast Road Z-rated

Performance Friction pads are now available to fit all 156, 147, GT and GTV models fitted with Twin Spark, JTS, JTD and 2.5 V6 engines. We have had these pads specially made by Performance Friction to fit these models, so Brembo callipers are no longer a requirement for massive stopping power.

GTA brake conversion

Early Alfa Romeo 147 and 156 GTAs were fitted with the smaller 305mm Brembo discs and calipers which have a tendency to warp. From 2004-on Alfa Romeo fitted the larger 330mm discs and larger Brembo calipers, with many earlier GTAs also upgraded under warranty. For those GTAs built 2002-2003 that weren't upgraded, this kit is available to upgrade to the 2004-on specification brakes. This gives significantly better braking power and resistance to  brake fade.

This kit also fits the GTV/Spider 3.0 V6 and 3.2 V6

Kit supplied from £1210
Kit supplied and fitted, including new brake fluid, from £1540
