DBA T3's all round and Project Mu400 pads all round and a flush with quality dot 4 fluid 

 

 

 

So I do have T3 4000 series slotted in front...these exact ones, but I thought I can't get T3's to fit in rear due to handbrake stuff inside it.

This only gives me an option of DBA505E for replacement in rear??

Look at the part number on the box from the picture I supplied 

 

this is for FG turbo front and rear T3's

Hi mate did you just get your front T3's and NS400's 

 

Yep - got T3's all round and 400's all round (via Jet)

 

Zero squeal - no fade and no dust

 

Slightly less initial bite than the Bendix Ultimates (maybe memory failing - had a set of OEM pads in between) I had but the Bendix squealed like a stuck pig, and dusted up real bad.

 

Hard runs through the twisties and hills they perform brilliantly. Set I had on prior (OEM) smoked like a stoner after a downhill chase.

@JETURBO, what is the purpose of the copper multi purpose grease?

Is this something that is placed on the rear of the pads to prevent squeal?

Maybe for lubricating the slide pins.  IIRC the EBC sachets I dug out of Kyle's driveway sand were coppery in colour hahaha

Also works well between piston and pad to stop squeaks. A small amount only of course.

What lukas said, it's an old school trick

Thanks for the info. I put the red stuff on the back of mine and the ultimates squeal to no end when doing light brakings. Driving me bonkers lately. Ultimates still braking like a champ, but those light applications of the brakes in peak hour traffic................

I use the red spray on goo stuff and all silent.  Might be more to do with caliper and pad than the goo.
