I was gonna do a build. Was gonna be, Tyres, Brakes, Suspension, gearbox strengthen, engine work/bolt on mods haha. Which is how I think you should. But, instead have a car that was 90 percent done. And whats not done is suspension/tyres/brakes haha. So currently tryna do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planned for Tuesday but got delayed due to pads moved to Friday yeah no problems all good.Car up the hoist, wheels off did the rears first well going sweet when I noticed they ordered DBA T2's WTF oh well still better the standard and well be a little cheap now. savings!!Moved to the front and BAM ordered wrong size. They were smaller that the Turbo rotor so guessing it was for a XT or something. They did a ring around and can only get the from Sydney and will be here around 3:30pm, really ok then what can you do sh1t happens.Front rotors arrive excellent. Closer look and not DBA T2 or T3's FFS. They are RDA never heard of them but they're the sister rotors for DBA still very good apparently. OK!! They are grooved and dimpled rotors. http://rdabrakes.com.au/page/Product-Rotors.aspx#dimpleSo things are not going to plain to what I wanted. So after a whole day brakes are done.Well OMG huge difference and boy don't the stop. Very happy!! This morning on my way to work ive notice from when I normal start applying the brakes im pulling up about 1-200mts short, excellent!!I'm lucky that my very good mate owns the workshop so I did most of the work.Overall very very happy PadsFront Rotors - RDA with SRTRears - T2's with SRT Edited 31/08/13 07:05 AM by ANGEL#3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant give one now as I have never used either brand before. First time up upgrade.My GT ran brembos and we all now about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
