soooo....

where can i grab brakepads round melb @ a good price asap? have deca on the weekend and i dont think i can do another day on the current ones

looking at pads for track and street duties....

Hamish.

Call GSL rally sport and you'll have them on wednesday from qld.

Get HP-X or the A1RM's for a higher temp pad. I'm using A1RMs and they're good for track work too.

A1RM's are track pads and chew through rotors really badly in cold mornings. I used them on my daily and needed new rotors after 30,000km. After speaking to QFM, they are track oriented pad and will chew through rotors quickly when they are not up to temperature (ie daily driving)

I have QFM HPX pads now which are great for street. Cheaper and better than Bendix Ultimates but I have been told they will not hold after a couple of runs on a track.

For motorkhana/daily driving the HPX will be your best option.

Brakes plus in Highpoint. EBC Reds for teh brembos cost me $600 or so. not too bad and a great pad for street and track, also no icky black dust on your wheels, teh powder stuff that does come from them wipes off with wet sponge due to no metal compounds!

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
