you dont have to bed them in?

Woo hoo, just fitted my Ferodo DS2500's that came in the other day, awesome pads and highly recommend them! When they bite, they bite!

Brendan that ebay cat is US spec cops here will look @ it and think its a hot dog or some shit better off with that race spec cat at least it looks like a cat

but all the best with it :banana:

I followed the initial bed in instructions that they included... but yes, you are correct, I'm still taking it easy for the first few 100 or so kays. Still pedal feel even under normal breaking conditions is sooo much better than my previous pads (got no idea what they were however)

just do what i did, put my new pads in, drove up the street to beggin bedding them in then slam on your brakes to miss a toddler chasing a cat!

yep, my brakes squel and feel like shit! thanks kid.

lol maybe i should save for new rotors too :banana: i think thats on the cards anyways

anyway im off to bed pretty tired 5:30 up 12pm bed kills you by friday

don't buy new ones, just measure and if thick enough, machine them

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
