Half price rears on any vehicle set of QFM in either HPX or A1RM!

QFM's Performance Street pads fall into two compounds. The first is the HPX pad which is a perfect choice for street cars looking for excellent braking performance whilst retaining all the qualities of a good street pad. The HPX pads are ideal for high performance street cars looking for higher working temperatures with reduced fade, and also for Four Wheel Drives or vehicles looking to enhance their towing capacity or safety.The HPX pads unlike many pads in this performance range are virtually dust free, whilst maintaining low rotor wear.

QFM's second high performance street pad is the A1RM compound and provides QFM with its club sport track pad. It is ideal for high performance street cars that take to the track to test the limits, whilst still being a streetable pad. The A1RM is ideal for club level rally and hill climb where brakes are required right from the first corner!

SPECIFICATIONS
Formulation - Cold Friction - High Friction - Temperature (C)
HP-X - 0.41 - 0.42 - 0-550

I spoke to you about the Lucas Pads you have on special. Are they the D-TEcs ?

I currently have QFM, absolutely love em, easily best pad i have used, such a fien light dust, cleans of so easily, not like that tar that Ferodo Excel used to make....only problem is i need to change all my rotors, but my pads still have heaps of meat left on them. I believe i should not use old pads on new rotors. The price you had for the other pads is very attractive if i need to change em all over again. What are you charging for front and rear rotors sent to Melbourne ???

I would replace the rotors and just scuff up the current pads. Rubbing the pad surface in a circular motion on concrete removes all of the glazing and any high spots created by grooves in the old rotor. This will help to take the pad back to a similar surface to what they had out of the box and will allow you to bed them in with the new rotors.

[gslrallysport]

Yep, as Sammy said, using used QFM's on new rotors won't be a dramas, just scuff them up, and give them a good bed in time without flogging them to avoid any hot spots. The Lucas were just the normal high performance ones, not the low dust D-Tecs.

Cheers,
Greg

Another QFM A1RM fanatic on cruisingbrisbane.com:

I have these on my evo.
F*cking great.

Had EBC green stuff pads on at first.. could not brake very well when they were cold.
Put on the QFM Race Pads; f*ck yes.

[vxcalais_01]

Thanks for that guys, i will give em a nice scrape on the driveway, no problems of grit getting in ?

[gslrallysport]

Not if it's smooth concrete, but you'll soon see.

I am still waiting for some last brake components for my car to test the A1rm's, but i put a set of HPX front and SUPER X on the rear of my GF's twin turbo soarer and **** ME! The car stops so well! this was installed with RDA slotted rotors purchased from GSL.

Great service, great products, recommend to anyone, and will be buying anything else i need from here.

Thanks again Greg!
