tim85 Member 56 Member For: 16y 2m 1d Posted 23/05/11 09:21 AM Posted 23/05/11 09:21 AM I got a pair DBA 4000 slotted front 328mm rotors and some new Remsa pads to go with them. Can't wait to fit them! Also sold to me by GSL Rally.

Very happy. $97 delivered from GSL.Very quiet pad, low dust and pull the car up well.These replaced QFM A1RM's. Found these pads too moisy, dusty and chewed through rotors. Last set of rotors I got 8k.They did pull the car up really well and never suffered brake fade at Wakefield. Edited 30/05/11 08:59 AM by Skidude
tim85 Member 56 Member For: 16y 2m 1d Posted 12/06/11 02:48 AM Posted 12/06/11 02:48 AM how are we finding the Remsa pads? Mine have worse dust than standard but definately stop better, brakes still squeel but only when cold (even after replacing rotors with DBA4000)
