RB needs new discs and pads. I've ordered Brembo discs but usually put Mintex 1144 pads in the Brembos but wondering what other LADS members use? Any thoughts, advice or experience would be helpful. Thanks Andy
Was going to try Performance Friction in mine - but they were a bit erratic on supply so I ended up getting Brembo pads from Alyn at ASP...
I've tried several makes over the years with varying results, so here's 3 worth a mention - Mintex 1144 - A good pad if your on a budget but I managed to burn them out on a spirited run (the centre of the pad was cracked & crazed). I found them slightly better then OEM but won't be using them again. Ferodo DS2500 - Great Pad. I never had any fade but they did squeal quite a bit and produced a lot of dust. They also didn't last very long. I'm currently on Performance Friction Z rated - I was a little disappointed at first as they didn't seem to bite, but they've just got better & better the more I've used them. I've had no fade (even on the Tubs run) and while they do produce a fair bit of dust they don't squeal. Only downside is they can feel a little "wooden" when cold. Next on my trial list will be the Pagid Blue's.
Betsey has been running Carbon Lorraines, the last trackday she did before she got parked up last year, blew my mind. Amazing!!
