Qfm Brakes

[RHR]

Hello all

Gotta wack pads on my T so I thought id give QFM in Cardiff a call

They have three different types available for Ba Falcons

Basic normal everyday use for (Taxi 69)

$45 for front set and $45 for the rear

High preformance (LTM) best used with slotted rotors in particular DBA4000

$85 for front set and $85 for the rear

They also have one for track use (81RM) and are about as dusty as bendix ultimate but offer even better stopping power

$95 for the front set and $95 for the rear.

The owner of QFM used to work for Bendix in their design section. He retired some years ago and moved up to QLD and since then has been developing brakes.

All this info was from Tyrone at QFM

5 Dewrang St Cardiff NSW 2285

They have all types in stock

He also advised me that there is another supplier in Belmore NSW called

Universal Spares

ph: (02) 9787 1444 Motor Accessories--W'salers & Mfrs

They only have the basic ones in stock

Ill let you all know how it goes when I pick up mine.

which ones are you getting?

[RHR]

Not 100% sure yet the Track ones look pretty good at that price and just $10 per end more than the HP ones

I was thinking if they are good I might talk to the guy about a group buy

Not bad Pad's, we used to stock them in my old workshop.

They wear very well once bedded in properly (More bedding in required than bendix) and they are pretty much the one price across the there model range.

As you had them in your workshop what would you recomend for me.

We generally used the Taxi Pack standards with great results in the workshop and you could get allot of margin on them compared to the Bendix with more milage between changes.

I use the LTM high performance in my car at the moment, I have slotted DBA's also and can't fault them. Get very good milage out of them to with a fair bit of hard braking.

What about dust and squeal?

I use the standard qfm pads in my workshop all the time.

They are good wearing and not to bad dust wise as for noise they are great.

Dito for what Goldie said,

No dust or squeal but I did have one lot of shudder but I doubt this was the pads to be honest and a machine fixed it
