So its time to change my pads again.
I changed then about 45000km ago so I thought id upgrade the rotors also.
Just wondering what are some good pads on the market.

thanks for the heads up
their pads on the site seem good but you could get brembos on ebay for a better price.

yeah tbh i never saw brembo pads before and i always wondered if they did do pads.
im thinking of taking a chance and going for the bosch break pads
seeing as its a respectable company and all. they are only $50 approx

Using EBC Greenstuff on RDA slotted and dimpled rotors. Does the trick for me

i think the rda heavy duty rotors look pretty good
the ebc stuff is sold by them in keysborogh which is 2 mins from my house

Chris I would stay away from the Bosch pads they generate a huuuge amount of black dust....

Definitely cant fault them. I've had no problems with them at all. Lots of brake power from cold. Perfect for street use. Havent really pushed it along the twisties, but it has held up well for moderate fun though.
i also changed the brake lines as well as fluid at the same time.

Buy either Greenstuff, Redstuff or Project MU spec B or HC+. Very good! Depends how hard you drive.
The RDA rotors are good too!
im personally running the DBA 4000 series T3 Discs. GOOD STUFF!
