Dba 4000 Rotors

[koppers]

Drilled are prone to cracking and are a weaker rotor. Slotted only is the optimal combination.

The only harder level of driving possible, in order to destroy good pads/rotors is track work or those who like to rest there left foot on the brake pedal.

I.B.

They lasted for one trackday at QR, but split the following week. Heat and weight just proved to be too much I guess.

Still seemed to pull up well and lift the rear. Much, much better now though.

How good is the unburnt fuel on the gear change!? Straight through exhaust bar one muffler helps

Hey everyone,

I am looking at buying some DBA 4000's as my brakes are nearly shuddering like taxi brakes, but was wondering how much others have paid? I have been quoted $130 a corner plus $18 postage and was wondering if this is a good deal? I went to supercheap auto today, but they didn't have any and it'd be good to know how much others have paid and where they have got them from.

Cheers.

Do you have a BA or BF? $130 a corner sounds very cheap and if they are DBA4000 and not streets for that price get it straight away.

[TURBO4LT]

that's sounds way to cheap for 4000's grab them.

[millers]

whats the difference between BA and BF discs?

I asked Race Brakes for a quote on DBA4000's for my BA2 and he came back with a price or $231 for BF discs. will they fit with the stock BA calipers?

[ravenhard]

Stock BA disc are 298mm in size and stock BF are 322mm. You cant run BF disc with a BA caliper unless you do some mods

I got a BF2. Cost me 230ish a rotor from Supercheap. Had to get them ordered in.

I recently bought DBA 4000 slotteds for $160 each from Perth Brake Parts. I am happy with them but not the ferodo formula pads, they squeal like a biatch. Only when dry, not in the rain.

Where abouts does this good deal come from? Anychance we could get in on this great price?

I'm in the market for a brake upgrade. Those in Melbourne, if you let me know, I will ask around the various brake shops and tuners to see if they would give a volume discount if I could get 3 or more guys come along to have their front brakes upgraded. We would all have to agree on what is done to a certain degree. I'm goin for only front upgrade with DBA 4000 slotted discs and Bendix Ultimates pads (as nifty said the Ferodos squealled - which I don't want - heard the Ultimates generate a bit of brake dust - but I'd prefer brake dust to squeal any day).

So who's in for this combo and fitted as well? I'll seek out what the shops can do as a volume break (how many numbers they would need to give us a discount) and what the price would be fitted.

Upgrade (add name below and I will PM you):

EvilDaifu - Front brakes only DBA 4000 slotted with Bendix Ultimates supplied and fitted.
