because dba and bosch are giads when you can pay the same for decent aftermarket gear :)

but he has DBA already...and what you call "decent aftermarket gear" often isn't any better than the DBA or Bosch gear it is just directed at more niche markets...

you get what you pay for, doesn't matter which company you get it from, price usually defines quality..so you wont necessarily get a better product but you may get one more suited to your needs...

wut????????

just stop dave. your emabarasing yourself, me and everyone else here.

have you had you pill today?!

well go and put your pants on and take it.

and forgod sake get back in the house and stop shouting at those kids outside.

anyway just defending my Bosch quickstop brake pads...they are really good, quiet, dustless and quik to stop

DBA discs have been known to fail on racecars, but thats because they are cheap....you get what you pay for...

unless you are English, then apparently you get everything amazing at bargain basement prices...lol

and dont worry dave your butt hurt about my wrecker car costing less to get on the road than your free one will soon be over, im spending a lot of cash at scottys!

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
