Get a set of pmu clubracers and you cant go wrong. They have heaps of bite when cold so you can use them on the street with no problems

LOL, i bet you have ABS :)

I cant drive with bitey pads like some Hawks and Endless CCR. I just forever lock up and flat spot tyres :(

= SQUARE TYRES and reverting back to RB74 sporty street pads :)

I'm just about to do Phillip Island this weekend in my 32 GT-R with standard brakes and A1RM pads. Anyone have any idea of how they'll hold up at the island.

They were pretty average at Winton as they started to fade trying to pull up after the straights.

Do you have ducting for the front brakes? If not, throw some on there, will help.

You must be trail braking alot to carry a locked tyre that far into a corner or is it that you had to stay on the brakes late due to an earlier lock up?

I used to use RB74's. But I found that once they went away due to heat they never would come back. Not sure why.

The DS2500 feel as though they have changed in the last set I bought. Alot more bitey when you first bed them in. After a few kms they reverted to how they used to feel.

His set are for R34 calipers so no good for me.

I'll check out OTR though, cheers for that.

Ah yes, you must have the Nissan brake setup.

Then the part number you need for PMU is F236.

Cause I upgraded to Brembo Calipers, I just see it as all interchangeable :laugh:

As the part numbers are all the same for R32 / R33 / R34 GTR (Brembo Caliper Only)

Which is PMU F206.

Ive used the a1rm on about 4 track days and there not really confidence inspiring. They tend to let go after one or two decent laps and they wear out really fast. Waste of money in my opinion. Get a set of pmu clubracers and you cant go wrong. They have heaps of bite when cold so you can use them on the street with no problems

I have already haha. I bought a set of pmu clubsports of them which they recommended but i never fitted them coz i bought a set of alcons soon after with the clubracers which are a step up to the clubsports. There brand new in box if anyone wants them pm me

So you went from stock hardware with a1rms, to alcons with PMu.... Fair test? :/

Yes It is because my opinion is directed to the topic of a1rm pads on stock gtr calipers which is what people were talking about. The a1rm pads in my opinion, and im sure gsl will tell you the same thing is, a1rm is a very good street pad that you can take to the track and the clubraces are a track pad you can also drive on the street. It has plenty of bite when cold and when used on the gtr brembos will still be a big step up on the a1rm.

RB74s in my pad shape are dirt cheap. Something like $140. I have plenty of rotor and cooling so luckily able to get away with cheap pads. Am going to give RS4-2s a go next.

And yes,..I carry a fair whack of brake up to the Apex. I set my car up so its a bit dosey in turning as it is easier to wrestle the car to the apex and have good power down then a nice front end that the read doesnt want to follow and blases tyres on exit. Maybe a more switched on person could set the car up better but meh...it is what it is

I find my a1rms were fine on the track. But I have a much lighter car. How much are clubracers worth? I just looked it up at $350 for some fronts, so I think I'll be ok with the QFM product.

    • He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...
    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
