Good pads, and very cheap!

Agreed on the remsa pads cheap as chips good bite when cold and can withstand fairly high temps without fade,also very quiet and not overly dusty

+ 1 for the A1RM

Use these on the front of my V35, work perfectly when cold and keep on working when they get hot

As good as the Ferodo DS2500 which I have also used in the past without the price

If you ever think that there is even a slim chance that you may take your car to the track get the A1RM you wont be sorry

Yep +1 for the A1RM's. Holy crap they're brilliant. I used them on my 180sx track car/road car and they were absolutely perfect. Really little break dust too. Also, the guy at GSLRallysport deserves as much attention as he can get. Seriously the nicest guy I've ever dealt with. I remember ordering at 2pm and they were delivered to my door at 8:30 the next morning.

Also, he sells some TRW GP600 brake fluid for $65.00 and it's rated to 300ish degrees.

Yep, I actually run the cheaper little brother (the HPX) and even they are FANTASTIC! Bang for buck they are awesome! And yes, GSL are awesome to deal with in every respect!

Good thread, as I'm currently looking for some pads that don't produce as much dust as the ones I got on at the moment...

[dodes47]

Thanks for the replies guys. I'll go for the one on eBay, Cheers. Oh what about rear pads? Should I go for the same brand?

[Nightcrawler]

Email GSL and tell them what you want and they will sort you out.

EBC Red Stuff. Love 'em. Low dust, great stopping power and so far, my discs aren't terribly unhappy with me.

Brembo or non Brembo ? I got some Stoptech Brembo Pads for sale, front and rear set. They are Stoptech Performance pads. Fantastic

Yeah, give them a ring or send them an email. The last time I rang GSL, I got a full set of 4 DBA slotted rotors for $340 down from ~$800. So, it's worth giving them a ring to see.

[dodes47]

Ended up calling Greg at GSLRally and got a good deal, I think..

4 sets of rotors and a set of front and rear pads (HPX) for $399 delivered. How's this sound?

[Nightcrawler]

Yep, that is crazy good ..... ring up another rotor company and I guarantee you that you won't even find a set of rotors for that price, let alone good pads as well

[dodes47]

Thanks Andrew. Cant wait to fit it in

[180 wanabe]

Thats an awesome deal I know who I'm ringing when I end up cracking my next rotor

Lol. "When." That's a ridiculous deal though! Well done mate.
