As it turns out the price quoted for the lines was each, not for the lot. Feel pretty silly now but I must have misunderstood the bloke.
 
So my brakes are ordered and here is the list:
 
Braided Lines (Black in colour) $90 each
 
RDA rotors drilled, slotted, dimpled and heat treated $100 each
 
EBC Greens pads $110 pair
 
I'm pretty happy with that in the end, I chose to go for a solid rotor in the end mostly to make it easier for me to fit and also I will be setting up some ducting for the track. With others getting no fade with more power and a solid disc I'm sure my car will be fine with this set up.
 
Thankyou to all who helped out and offered their opinions, your help has been greatly appreciated.
 
I will let you know what I think when they are fitted and after the track day.
 
Cheers, Ryan

I went for solids too with my road going mk1 after reading around a bit. From what I gathered the solid disc is fine for street and light track work if the rest of the brake system in in good working condition. The negatives to spacer kits/vented rotors is non-compliant (insurance could wriggle out of a claim if I had an accident), need to remove dust guards  (keeps rotors cooler but allows in dirt/debris) and tie rod ends touch or get very close to the rotors. There are tie rod ends with a smaller diameter on the rubber to help gain a few more mm clearance but it's stil very close. Pads i used are just Bendix General CT which seem great... I wouldn't know what brake fade was if it bit me on the arse
 
 

This is great reading - "Pulp Friction" by Grassroots Motorsports.
 
The article is in the form of 6 jpegs close to the bottom of this page:

Sure changed my mind about what I was about to do with my brakes.  After doing a bunch of calculations and ending up within a few percent of what I already had, I saved myself a very tidy sum of money and a whole lot of aggravation.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, I picked them up last night so after I get some uni work out the way Ill fit them as soon as I can. Can't wait to see the difference
 
Thanks Flighter, that was a very interesting read! Helped alot with understanding what is good and what isnt when it comes to brakes, Ive got a bit more of an understanding now.

Brakes are now fitted.
 
I am very happy with the difference it has made. I am a lot more confident with the car now knowing when I step on the pedal it will actually stop as it should. I have only driven short distances so far but I can tell that the more heat I get into them the grippier they are. Also I don't need to put anywhere near as much force through the pedal as I did before.
 
Really happy with the results, thank you again for everybody's input, your help has been very much appreciated. I would very much recommend this setup as a cheap upgrade, it has made a world of difference.

Hi Guys, i'm in the UK and can tell you the front vented discs & caliper from the Ford Mondeo 2.0 4x4 estate  (not saloon) approx;year 2008 will fit straight on. The caliper itself was first used on the original Metro 6R4 Group b rally car back in the eighties. I bought some for £50 Stg per side some years ago of a Fresh low mileage car that the breaker didn't realise what they where!. You will need to have 15" wheels fitted .

Hi guys just wanted to add,
 
I took the car out for the track day and I didnt experience any fade. Was very impressed with the brakes, pulled up strong time after time. I think I was out for about 10 laps in a row going flat chat and they felt as strong at the end of a session as they did at the start.
 
Thanks again for everyone's help
 
Ryan
