No problems here:

Alcons 6/4 on the BA F6; Factory Brembo 6/4 on the BF F6; plenty of stops at over 130mph (210+ kph) at the track, and kept straight every time.

BA with Alcons are 355 front & 330 rear. From memory there is a 375mm option, but you'll need 19" wheels and spare.

BF has DBA slotted ... I think factory size.

Alcons definitely pull up better.

They are 355mm front and back.

I'll have a play tomorrow and see. May have just been the road. Bl**dy Werribee Council. How dare they build roads not suited for heavy braking at 140+

It's 'possible' you are over braked at the back end!

Bigger Rotors on the front and smaller Rotors on the back 'may' be more effective with your Calipers!

The fronts do most of the work!

My rear Rotors and Pads last 'heaps' longer than the fronts!

Think I worked it out.

I was heavy braking with the ZF transmission in perf mode. Mine changes down aggressively under braking and I think when I brake hard Im getting aome compression lock up.

Anyway, I havent had a change to do some stops. Took it on the Otwats run yesterday and did some very quick runs through some turns with a super powered FG up my clacka. He ran out of brakes and I had not a touch of fade and it was stopping where I wanted it too so, so far so good.

Whats a set of pads average fro 6 pot Front Brembos? Anyone?
