Hi Floored /Matt
I'm after a price some pads for Brembo 4pots for the front. Also do you recommend discs ? Just gone thru my first set of pads (10% left) in 20k travelled. I'm not a pleased with the amount of dust from factory pads. Can you offer a range of pads & prices ? I'm in Adelaide so freight costs also ? Thanks in advance & also have noted your great personal service & follow up efforts. Cheers Todd |

Matt's on holidays ?
This team has been super responsive to possible sales & seem to have an excellent back up to the product they sell. I do NOT know Matt or anyone in this company, for what it's worth. Money & service speaks. |

Hi Floored
Called into Sprints to get a trany filter & gasket for my wifes BA. They do a FG Brembo Bendix pad *#>>*# for $ 248? Dollars are not the main concern. Given my car is not an everyday'r dust, & braking ability is. Can you pls give me hard numbers on 3 or 4 pads. I hope to only do 2 3 track days / year. 4pot Brembos mate front. Ps. Why are ppl able to upgrade from stock to 6/4pots without bigger master cylinders ? |

Anything you want for use with track work will have dust and the ferodo DS2500 pads will stop you and cost $300 a set and we have good street pads from $150 to $270 but will not be as good on the track. A larger master cylinder was not needed when upgraded to the 6/4 set up as the BA on were all fitted with the fast fill master cylinders with the 1 1/4 bore front and 15/16 rear.

Hi Matt
I ended up getting srt pads from the place where my discs were done. Hope they are fit for purpose. I fitted them Friday nite & went to Mallala Saturday. Bedding in proccess of 60k's total. Wasn't enough. 3 laps into 1st session discs felt like they were warping. Used 2 more sessions ( driving like a granny ) to bed em in & towards the end of the 3rd session did some normal hard track braking. All fine under soft use but in track conditions, warp time. Left the track in disgust before I really buggered discs. Now all bedded in I'm confidant I was right to back off & save my discs for another day. Should get another year out of these rotors. |
