Potential Of Stock 33 Gtst Brakes

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

Im thinking of upgrading my front rotors to DBA4000 T3 along with some new hi-po pads.

Im wondering if the rear stock rotors are ok for track work? Ive seen a pair of DBA4000 T3 rear rotors for $338 and new stock rotors for $120. Is it worth spending the extra $200 odd on the DBA's?

Also i heard the QFM A1RM pads are good but dont last very long, is this true?

in most cars the fronts do 80% of the braking, those MU handbrake shoes seem worthwhile, thats all I would spend on the rears.

Thanks.

you only need them MU shoes if you plan on drifting though...pointless for racing...you may as well spend it on discs...but I wouldnt really bother unless you are killing stockies first..

the A1RMs are nice..I have them now and only 110$ or so...so does it really matter how long they last at that price...even if you replace them yearly its a bargain...very smooth pad on the street too...

I'll be getting some new stock discs for the rear. I'm pretty keen on some Ferodo DS2500 pads for the front, but they are hard to find cheaper than $350 inc postage at the moment!

Ive had some feedback that DS2500s are pretty ordinary on the street, I would go the A1RM for something more of a club warrior than dedicated track.
