lol yea well u get to help me push it into the workshop so its a pain in the arse for u as well

i know we like them, i want some more opinions though :rolleyes:

comon guys, dont need to be an expert to have an opinion

:thanks:

I've had some on my car for about 3 months now but my cars not done yet so its been getting rolled in and out of the garage lol.

I'm running qfm pads, how about you?

Sorry I can't give you any feedback yet though

Ive got them on my car mate with ebc red stuff pads and hel braided lines made a huge difference! My car is only a gtst though they looked the best outta everything else i looked at so was sold purely on aesthetics lol

Standard size mate,

Yea I pretty much got them based on looks,

Running braided lines with remsa pads should be a good improvement hopefully

Haha!

Yeah it will be.

It will tighten up the brake response.

I've been running the RDA's on my car for a while cause they are inexpesive and don't crack under track conditions. I run A1RM's for the Street and Hawk Blues for track. Because both of these pads are super abrasive and I do about 4 track days per year I only get about 2 years from a set of rotors (or two sets of rotors for one set of race pads).

As long as you stick to street pads you should get good wear from them.

I think it is more the fact that the RDA rotors are a little soft

Correct.

Something like Project Mu SCR, or 4000 or 5000 Series DBA will last ALOT longer on aggressive pads due to their higher carbon content.

RDA (and indeed street series DBA and Project Mu CRD) are just basic street trade servicing items that have just been slotted for extra performance.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
