I had a mk1a once and hated it! What colour combination is yours?
For 4 discs and pads all round including the track rod ends and ball joints, that is incredibly cheap, but I imagine the quality of parts is not very good though. Discs are discs however, but buy decent pads, EBC and Mintex do good pads, but are around £40-50 a set.
If you haven't done much mechanicals before and you are considering doing your brakes on your own, get a mechanic to check it over after because the consequences of mis fitted brakes can be unthinkable - i'm rebuilding my engine etc but will not touch the brakes even now as i'm not confident with them.
One more bit of advice, which some people still don't seem to follow - do not get under your car when its up on the jack - only get under when its secure on axle stands.
Have fun and post up some pictures!
