Hey guys,

Im changing my brakes on Friday and I've got with cross slotted rotors. However, I'm after a pad that will work with these but are also low in dust and especially noise. My current brakes are shocking.

Anyone who knows of some then please let me know!

Hi Callum,

As I said on the phone, and just FYI for everyone else, HPX we've phased out in favor of a better performance street pad. It's a European performance pad called Remsa, which is rated to 650 degrees (versus 550 for the HPX), whilst still being low dust and rotor wear. Also the Remsa come with noise reducing features such as a relief groove and shamfers in the pad material, as well as a soft backing shim, all of which the HPX do not come with. We've been supplying Remsa to high performance street road cars like Porsche and Ferrari for many years, but the pricing has now become such that we're now able to expand it to most road cars. Remsa to suit the front of GTST is $89 for the set. Rear's we're still doing HPX for now, and they're $79 for the set.

Regards,

Greg

What pads are in there now?

You might want to get your discs machined while there of, depending on how worn/lipped they are.

You cant go wrong with bendix, you shouldn't have any dramas with noise, or qfm. There all much the same for street use, I've used both bendix and qfm and never had problems with noise.

Not to sure but there s**t. Screaming noises and rims covered in dust after 2 days

They do, but we're not ordering them in until the 6 or 7 remaining sets of HPX have sold. Pricing from memory on the rears is about the same.

Ok cool. Well I hope you have the rears for me on hold.

I will see you on Friday!

I'm using project mu b-spec on slotted rotors - I get very very low brake dust and no noise at all - also running project mu shims so might help a little also.

Highly recommend for street

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
