DIY Brake upgrade question

I am thinking of upgrading to the following:

EBC Greenstuff front pads
EBC Greenstuff rear pads
EBC Front discs
EBC Rear discs
Goodridge Braided lines
AP Racing 5.1 dot brake fluid

cost: £318.55


My question is are these good or should I be looking at something different. budget is about £350.

TBH the Greenstuff pads and discs are not too good now. I personally would buy GTT Spiroslot discs and pads - better made, should stop a little better than the EBC items and are cheaper.

They can be found here.

It was acceptable in the 80's
