Outer Northside Aspley To Caboolture

[RandomHero83]

What work has been done to your 34 Clint?

I have been meaning to ask as I am still upgrading mine and trying to work out what I am going to do next / where the line to stop upgrading is.

pending on the model you have, RDA's will set you back a bit more possibly. i paid around 550 for the fronts and 450-500 for the rears for a 34gtt. they were the slotted and dimpled ones though, so the normal ones they have may be had at a good price. RDA are also reluctant in giving out prices, but as smitty said a bloody good rotor, i much perfer these over DBA.

Pads, i use ProjectMu B-Spec, nice pad, used in sprints as well as daily. They've seen about 6 rack days and my car gets used 5-6 days a week and they still have decent meat on them. they get squeaky from time to time, but normally a bit of spirited driving fixes that up. only other pads i've used are bendix ultimates, not to bad for street use, not real flash on the track.

got everything done on the Beetle this morning, and picked up a dog kennel from Palmwoods yesterday.....(interesting drive).

But i havent got to checking my rear brakes. i've never been a fan of any form of Bendix pads. they've always been dusty, noisy, or plain just dont work well. they now have the self bedding pads (not sure how long theyve been around for). ralf got a set for the front of his car. theyre not in yet so dunno how they are.

i might try those Project Mu jobs then, as my car does alot of daily driving.

as for rotors, yeah Bob it sucks if you need to buy em. but the new ones should def last for a while.

the breaks on mine feel fantastic, so i dont think i'll need new rotors any time soon...hopefully

well i found some rda ones on ebay for 460 for front and r

ear slotted. I think that is what i will get. I will just see if i can get them cheaper from work. After 2nd lot of happy laps by brakes are spongy as hell.

hey, just wondering where you guys will be this wednesday night, might be coming along to meet up with everyone

[RandomHero83]

This week hasn't been decided yet, we could go either location what do you guys want to do?

I'm not stressed either way but I will be on call.

Let us know castledine or morayfield.

[boiracer]

im keen for carseldine, just for the drive

[Smity42]

I will just see if i can get them cheaper from work.

Let me know if you can, I need new fronts.

[BrisTroy]

Im happy with either... Might actually be craving indian though.

[Chris Rogers]

carseldine. I should have everything caught up pending two other cars with electrical probs.

[RandomHero83]

Looks like Castledine it is,

For those that don't know:

We (the northie's) meet at the southbound BP on the Bruce highway in Morayfield at 7pm on Wednesday night and then head down to the Castldine shopping village for pizza capers (corner of Beams and Gympie Roads) we are usually all there and eating by 7:30PM

Has anyone had any experience with RDA Extreme brake pads? The research i have done has been positive. I was thinking about EBC greenstuff but someone said due to my 98% street driving i might glaze the pads as im not using them that hard

[Excuses]

If its castledine i might have to pass, dont like driving that far with the commodore as im trying to sell it (work is obv a must)

[BrisTroy]

Just putting it out there, on the "northside" forum, that im looking desperately for a housemate. I can afford $380 a week rent on my own, but dont expect me at any meets, i'll be the one at home eating 2 minute noodles. Someone can have the master bedroom with ensuite in a furnished 4 bedroom place with huge yard for 190 a week and halves in bills. If you're looking, or know someone who is, please get in touch.

[Joe Nash]

so will it be at castledine this week?

[RandomHero83]

Yes castledine this week. Ash you can come with me if you want. Troy ill keep an ear out at work to see if anyone is looking for a place as jase just got a joint

[BrisTroy]

Show of hands who's coming out tomorrow night?

[Kiwibob]

I hope all you boys ( and girls) have your cars undercover. Storm warning.

Due to hit Strathpine/albany creek around 4pm.

[Joe Nash]

well i am hoping to be there tomorrow night

[Chris Rogers]

I will be.
