Hi Ryan,

A1RM for the VT are $119 per axle set front or rear. Shipping is free if you order front and rears together (so $238 all up delivered), or else $8 per axle set individually.

Regards,
Greg

QFM A1RM - Why pay more!!!

Installed a set of A1RM's front and rear just before Z Fest. By far the best value brake pads I've ever used, no pedal fade from high speed and hardly any dust which is what I expected from a high performance pad. I liken the performance of these to an EBC Red Stuff but at a fraction of the price!

QFM A1RM again outperforming expectations on the track!

GSL,

The pads arrived and were fitted up just in time for a recent club track day at Wakefield Park.

To be honest, I was absolutely amazed at their performance. They work well from cold and have so far not made any noise. When warmed up (one or two corners at the most), their bite was unbelievable (on my MX5).

It felt like I had the car standing on its nose braking into Turns 2 and 10 at Wakefield!

Their performance allowed me to brake much later than I have previously and I actually had to mentally refrain from hitting the brakes early.

And the best thing, they make minimal dust!

Tony

QFM A1RM Fitted to JZA80 Supra!

Got the A1RM fitted on the car with the brake fluid you guys sell. Even though I'm still bedding in the brake pads, I have to say you can feel the difference in the braking power these have. I had Bendix Ultimates prior to the A1RMs and they are a world of difference!

QFM HPX fitted to Mitsubishi Legnum VR4!

Awesome pads, No dust no noise. Worked far better then my previous set of Bendix Pads. Recommend to anyone whether you drive an import or not!

QFM A1RM fitted to JZA80 Supra!

UPDATE: Took these out at Sandown... no brake fade what so ever! the pads / fluid held out really well, and was still pulling up the car after a whole day of hard braking both in the wet and dry! Totally impressed by these pads and I highly recommend them!

Hey Greg, can I get a price on HPX fronts for a VS?
I think i saw $79 + delivery a page or so pack, and if thats still the case I'll grab a set

[gslrallysport]

Hi mate,

Yep, HPX to suit is $79 plus $8 delivery. Or delivery is free if you order rears at the same time (so $158 all up).

Easiest way to order is credit card over the phone, 1300 884 836, or else PM me your details, full name, delivery address (preferably a work or business address!!), contact number and email and I can fire you through an invoice with direct deposit details.

Regards,
Greg

You can't go past the QFM brake pads in IMHO. I run them on my VS with VT slotted discs and calipers and I run HPX on the rear with standard VS rotors and calipers.
I have been running the HPX for a couple of years now. I compete in Hill Climbs, Street Sprints and do the occasional track day.
The HPX work extremely well when dead cold and yet keep a great pedal after many laps of QR.
On the back straight of QR I am able to slow the car for turn 3 from 215KPH time after time and still have a great pedal for turn 6.
Even after many laps there is very little brake dust compared to other pads that I have used in the past.

hi mate,

is there any brake squeal with the A1RM's on the street?

[gslrallysport]

Not that we would consider normal for them no. Every application is different, and squeal is the harmonics between the backing plate and the caliper itself, and not generally anything related to the pad material, so on a whole there shouldn't be any squeal.

QFM Pads Fitted to BA Falcon!

Hi,

I own and drive a BA Futura 4.0L auto sedan. I was so impressed with the performance of your QFM pads on my BA Falcon I though I would drop you a email.

Ok firstly I spoke to someone there questioning on what pads and what improvement I could expect and was told QFM pads and around 10% or so, ok that was sure a understatement.

I had the QFM pads and new DBA slotted rotors fitted and I got to say I was very surprised the 10% improvement was wrong try 40 to 50%.

I have found that now braking is effortless less peddle pressure is required and the actually braking action is a major improvement, when I say peddle pressure I mean before on the standard BA pad and rotors you had to apply a reasonable heavy pressure to apply the brakes where now its almost just a toe pressure to apply the same braking effort.

Stopping from 100K’s the difference is easily 3 to 4 car lengths and as before less peddle pressure. One of the keys here as well as the stopping improvement is the requirement to use less peddle pressure this is something that the older drivers would appreciate not to mention make for safer driving.

I feel fitting the QFM pads and DBA rotors has made my vehicle much safer to drive and given me more security in the braking department.

QFM HPX Fitted to S13!

If there were any doubters, I have the HPX pads on my S13 (with an R33 GTS-T hub/brake conversion) and oh my God it pulls up very fast on RDA slotteds. they can take a fair bit of abuse but if you were ever going to track the car you'd go for A1RMs.

For the money, hard to fault!

I have used the A1RM's on my 33 for a club grip day and absolutely love it......ran Penrite sin 600 brake fluid, with HEL braided brake lines, RDA slotted rotors and A1RM's and did a solid 6 sessions and the brakes were fine all day.....was so much fun.....now time to get another set for another grip day

QFM HPX Fitted To VX Commodore!

I've just fitted some HPX pads to my VX Commodore (its just a daily runabout / family car) and wow, the cold bite on them is awesome and once they were warmed up wow! The abs kicks in so quickly! Very very impressed with them! Will definitely be recommending these pads to everyone I know!

Just fitted qfm pads that I bought from you to both my cars that have vt style calipers and they both rattled like crazy in the caliper especially when going over any bumps....when I pulled them out again and compared the old and new outer pad rattle springs there was a large difference in how the springs were bent(old pad was a QFM too)...and the both sets of the new ones were the same so it wasnt a one off. Check it out..had to take them off again and gently bend the springs out to stop this....might be worth a phone call to QFM to ask a few questions Greg?

[gslrallysport]

Thanks Mark,

Just sent your post to QFM (who coincidnetly enough rang me about something whilst I was reading your post!), and they're going to investigate. You're actually the second person in a week to have the problem, so they're getting onto it straight away!

Regards,
Greg

Its ok I took the calipers off again and the inner pad feel out by itself...definately needs to be addressed........then I just got some pliers and gently bent the new outboard pad springs to the old profile and replaced them...pads work fine just a rattle.....I hate to add to the rattles the car already has

QFM HPX Pads Fitted To VW Golf!

I have had the HPX pads front and rear of my 97 Golf 2.0 for a month or two now and I'm a big fan. The price was one of the best I could find, who ever I spoke to at GSL was really nice and the pads themselves stop great. Way better then the supercheap ones I had before which cost more. And my wheels are staying clean much longer then they used to. Very happy customer. They also got to Sydney the day after order for next to nothing cost.

Did bending the springs stop the rattle. i fitted a set to my ute about a month ago and they are rattling like crazy i'll check to see if the mine are the same.

[gslrallysport]

From what we understand yes, and all pads being sent out now have the problem fixed.
