I tracked the car again on Sunday Jet. The QFM A1RM's are excellent for our barges. I suggested them to bionic on here for his b series which has over 400rwkw now and he was rapt with how then went.

I would say bugger all dust - not much more than OEM for daily duties. Dusted up at the track but even then not ridiculous (see photo). One application in the morning and away they go. Nice hard pedal also - bugger all sponge. Rated to 750 deg. Run them, you won't be disappointed.

Has anyone run these?

Do they look the same as the XYZ's? If they do I would bet they are the same. If not, still would expect them to be similar in terms of performance

_{I've been told out of same factory old_mate and I don't doubt it. These are 8 piston fronts over the 6 piston XYZ's. The combo with the 4 piston rears is like $1100 cheaper than the XYZ full package so worth a look. Even if pads are an issue I'd just get QFM to custom a set with either HPX or A1RM compound with supplied backing plates.}

Nice. I just went 4 pot Brembos and territory rears. Will fit with braided lines hopefully before torque time. Whilst I half gambled with the XYZ coil overs (so glad I did as very happy with performance vs cost) stuck with what's proven regarding brakes. Be sure to let us know how they go.

Also checking Harrop monoblocs as you can buy just the fronts I've been told. They're 4 piston however but given they way they're made bugger all clamp lost in caliper flex + Harrop quality. Full kit rrp is $4950 so if fronts only comes in at half that then that's close to XYZ money. I'd then just do terry rear upgrade like you did.
