soooo....

where can i grab brakepads round melb @ a good price asap? have deca on the weekend and i dont think i can do another day on the current ones

looking at pads for track and street duties....

Hamish.

Call GSL rally sport and you'll have them on wednesday from qld.

Get HP-X or the A1RM's for a higher temp pad. I'm using A1RMs and they're good for track work too.

A1RM's are track pads and chew through rotors really badly in cold mornings. I used them on my daily and needed new rotors after 30,000km. After speaking to QFM, they are track oriented pad and will chew through rotors quickly when they are not up to temperature (ie daily driving)

I have QFM HPX pads now which are great for street. Cheaper and better than Bendix Ultimates but I have been told they will not hold after a couple of runs on a track.

For motorkhana/daily driving the HPX will be your best option.

Brakes plus in Highpoint. EBC Reds for teh brembos cost me $600 or so. not too bad and a great pad for street and track, also no icky black dust on your wheels, teh powder stuff that does come from them wipes off with wet sponge due to no metal compounds!

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.
