Give me a couple of weeks.

Just fitted 4000 series front and rear to my R32. Running EBC ceramic RS fnt and GS on the rear

I'll keep you all posted

(BTW) I ran EBC V2 RS on OEM rotors for TT03. The ceramics work better at low temps for sure. And initially feel stronger. Remembering that brakes are personal. In the early carbon days on the superbikes, guys would run carbon on one side and conventional on the other... prefering feel to outright performance.

They feel no different than standard rotors, however on a track they will last longer than standard rotors due to better heat dissipation.

I've been using DBA4000 for about 9mths now with RB74 front pads and COMP2's on the rear. This RB74 pad is where the real difference in stopping power is :D

Hi XEQTOR, we use DBA rotors on all of our cars, road and race. The pads of choice are Hawke Carbotic, in the Blue compound. The alternative is Performance Friction Carbon Metallic, in the 01 compound.

I have got DBA4000 slotted rotor F&R on both the R33 GTST and GTR and have found them quite good.  A noticeable difference on the time taken to induce fade.

i had them on my soarer and they vastly improved stopping especially from high speed. They were Very fade resistant and i'd definately buy them again :D

Better heat dissipation.... There is nothing wrong with standard rotors at Symmons Plains, a renown brake tester. The Japanese use good steel and it is well cured by the time we see em (120ks in 10 years)

Trouble is with some of the local product is we get beer cans car doors and all sorts in the mix... end result :D

Anyhow, I've bought the dba sales pitch and we will test, for five days 2500ks

i changed from stock rotors with bendix metal kings to dba4000's with ebc greens, and it made a very noticeable difference (note that my std rotors were 1mm undersize). Very initial bite is low, but they only need a small amount of heat before the bite becomes real positive. Only prob now is the std brake lines. I get fluid fade and/or line swelling after a good thrashing so im getting some braided lines very soon. am told they will make a world of difference, and that if i was even considering track work, i should most definitly get them fitted!

      Well, fun day was had, I finally found a house that will do me just fine, 1980's brick build, but with full fresh renovations, plus new colour bond fencing all round so puppies are incoming 🐕, and water tanks for the garden, and it's located in West Goulburn..... @Duncan 🫡, so day trips to Wakie to watch cars going Zoom will be on the cards In the end it cost well under my budget and was actually better than alot of the more expensive joints I was looking at, it is in a good area, close enough to the shops, public transport, and the Wollondilly River Weir,  and the great walking paths along the river, but far enough away from town to see minimal traffic The deposit is dropped, the conveyancer is conveyancing and I should get the keys in a week or 2 as the property is currently unoccupied  As with everything I own, I'm doing up a modifications list, as it doesn't have solar, that is first up on the big list, all of the panels and enough batteries to keep the joint warm, or cool, followed by a largish carport out the front, the small list, which will start as soon as I have keys, is some security stuff, like cameras, screens, and the usual "crazy prepper" additions that weird old people like (mouse holes to stick shot guns out of, and the usual man traps that the average person installs for the unsuspecting and unwanted guests 🤣) The gardens front and back are OK, but, not to my standards or liking, so landscaping will be a fun job to start getting into, so when spring is sprung I'll do a heap of planting, lots of natives and vegetables is the plan, the old owners were more "Old English Garden" type, so basically Roses and other weird looking things that are destined for the green waste bin One thing that is staying garden wise is a nice established hedge out the front, it is about 5 foot tall and covers the whole front of the property from prying eyes As for the car hoist, the roof in the garage has some height to it, but, I'll need to get an installer out to see what can be done, width wise may be a issue, but my building inspector will be getting back to me over the next week with his recommendations  Small, but cosy
