Got some quotes the other day but think they are a bit high.

slotted dba rotors - $140ea
ebc greenstuff - $200 set of 4

Makes it an expensive exercise for doing the whole car.

He also said to use different pads as the ebc's are really dusty and aggresive on rotors, said QFM pads? were good, and only $88 set.

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Enquire about being suitable for your ABS system .... As the 3 Amigos can appear because a certain amount of resistance of electricity runs through the pads

Hi,

I paid $300 for two front slotted discs (non-vented) which was 10% off retail, so $140 sounds OK.

Got M/C, pads (not EBC) and stainless braided lines from Paddocks at the same time. Stops like a normal car now. Not sure what made all the difference but it sure is good.

cheers, DL

Have you tried fleabay
I got new RDA front rotors and full set of pads about 16 months ago for $180

Luckily I dont have ABS mike.

Are you happy with your rotors and pads chris?

Any more info on those pads you got DL, and what did the brake lines from paddocks cost to get over here if you dont mind me asking.

Cheers

Yeah more than happy with my rotors ,The rear rotors dont like the rda pads (brake squeal) as the ome pads that came out of it were,nt that worn i just put them back in

Hi,

Mintex pads, nothing special, they don't squeel. Work well though. Have noticed that if you keep same constant pressure on the pedal when stopping you can feel them gripping harder as the discs warm up.

5 hoses extended 2" were about $100 plus freight. Ring them and ask for freight cost. Someone in Melb is doing them for about $25 each, was posted on here this year.

cheers, DL

Try Steve Hobbs - he may be able to do better than that for you
