Sorry to drag up an old thread but it's still relevant I guess. :spoton:

I'm planning on getting some DBA 4000 slotted rotors, any updates on the best pads to use for spirited street driving?

Still QFM, RB74, EBC Reds?

All these pads have been recommended by various members on here that use them. They are the most comonly discussed pad to fit with the DBA4000. I can only comment on the Ferodo and apart from the dust they do there job well.

I.B.

I would also be interested in other's opinons. I have just ordered my new DBA 4000 slotted and x-drilled rotors. :gtfo2: Want a pad that has good street application as well as the odd track/drag event. Don't mind dust. Can clean wheels, but need to stop 1st and foremost.

With DBA I have used and recommend Bendix Ultimate They stop like you would not believe.

But I just Fitted these Today.

Anyone had experience with the new Bendix pads yet?

Dingah

I've always used Bendix Ultimate, they are dusty (so What) and they do stop hard, DBA Aust does not like them used in conjunction with X-Drilled / Slotted, But I never had any trouble with my BA, So long as when they are hot, you do not sit at lights or extended periods with the peddle down hard as this holds the heat under the pad as the rotor begins to cool and can cause X_Drilled to crack. that is why slotted is better for track work.

The Bendix ultimate are fairly exy (Pricey) around $190.00 for fronts from memory, so the best thing to do is apply on-line for a REPCO discount card for 10/15%? of your purchase; OR the next step down is the Bendix performer, still great for the street but a lot easier on the rotor wear and tear.

Cheers. :gtfo2:
