Will be changing the front and rear rotors and pads on my bro's BAII XR6T in the next couple of weeks.
Was after a price for front and rear RDA dimpled/slotted rotors with either QFM HPX or Remsa pads (or any other similarly priced good pads you'd recommend?) How much more would the set cost if upgrading to the DBA T2 rotors? Would be able to come pick them up so wouldn't require postage. Cheers, Chris

Hello Matt, you legend, in regards to Hawk brand disc pads, a while ago you sold me Hawk Performance Ceramic pads for the 6 piston Brembos on the Territory.
Is there another grade of performance pad above this one as the current ones have sort of lost that performance "edge"? I was thinking maybe HPS or HP Plus? What would you recommend keeping in mind low dust is a prime factor. .

Cheers, seems like a good price. Is that with the HPX or Remsa pads? Which of the two pads would you recommend for daily driving or spirited street driving?

Either and both work fine although the Remsa seem to have an edge in my opinion and if your not in to much of a hurry we will have some more Brembo pads available soon.

I understand that the Hawk PS Plus would be noisy, based on the composition of the pads. I think you sold me the Project MU with my original Brembo brake package, which had VERY good stopping performance, but those pads produced way more dust than the Hawk PC ones. Just trying to get a grip on the next set of pads I will need mate. .

What would be the price of new front rotors for a SYII Territory please? This would just be to replace the original discs which I think are warped. (4 years old now.)
Thanks

Correct! the Hawk Performance Ceramic pads you have are low dust performance pads but you mentioned 2 other pads here "I was thinking maybe HPS or HP Plus? HPS pads are High Performance Street and are very good (if dust wasn't a factor) but are not low dust and the HP Plus are there street/track crossover pad which as you mentioned would not suit because of the pad composition.Hawk ceramic is the only low dust performance pad i can think of that is available. Would i be safe to say the PMU NS are dustier than the Hawk performance ceramic then but less dust than the genuine pads?

Hi Matt
Re these project MU pads. I think these are what Nelsonian is using on track days. I've recently put in my second set of Bendix SRT up front. Said they generate heaps of heat (trackdays) & may be partly responsible for excessive bearing wear. Do you have any extra feedback on these pads ? Best kept for trackdays or are ok for general duties ? I've recently put in my second set of Bendix SRT up front & found them less dusty than oem, fair on the track & good bite for general use on the road so not too keen to throw them away. |

Hi Matt.
Do you know if the 322mm vented rear disc off the BF xr8 will fit on the back of an FG GS instead of the 303mm rear and will the standard rear caliper work happily with the bigger disc? Thanks in Advance Cameron.

Hi mate you will find that the rear disc is 328mm and you also have to have to caliper that is used on it as the std caliper for the 303mm disc will not fit sorry plus you may need new hoses.

Depends on budget and the wheels you will use for the brake upgarde and what you will use the car for. Braided lines are always a better option but for std street use rotors and pads will be better as a basic upgrade for the street..

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions Matt.
No real budget and the wheels are factory 19" Dark Argents. Do you know the specifications of the factory optional 4 pot upgrade that was available on the first FPV GS's? As this is ultimately what I am after as I would like to keep it looking stock as if it were a factory option. Thanks again. Cameron

Hi Matt.
I am chasing set front rotors (DBA 42107S I think?) for my BFII XR6T as well as whatever pads you recommend if delivery to Mackay is possible without being too prohibitive? What about a braided line to suit the standard front caliper too? Cheers, Craig.

I would like to upgrade my discs and pads on the 2012 FPV GS that I own. It has the standard brakes that came with the car. How much for the DBA T3 4000 and DS Ferodo pads front and rear delivered to Victoria 3429? Also, would braided lines and quality brake fluid make much difference. I would like to give the car improved brakes to match its prerformance.
