Hey mate, car looks great. The rims really suit it.

wanted to ask you what you thought about the DBA 4000 series discs, I assume they are the viper slot rotors and how do you find them? I wanted change mine with the Bendix pads too. Can I ask how much you paid?

Thanks.

Yeah they are the wiper slot discs.
So far so good, i only get to drive my car mainly on the weekends due to having a work vehicle, so I give them a good workout :)
I paid $200 per disc, and $250 per pair of Bendix SRTs.

thanx :) hoping to get a better soundclip soonish weather permitting

oh the wheels im selling r 19" PDWs, the ones in the pics r 20" Advanti gauntlets, i got the 19s, and they were ok, but i wanted bigger, the PDWs didnt come in 20s though, and it just niggled at me in the back of my mind, so i eventually gave in and upgraded haha.

lol its ok

oh and another thing bout how it sounds, i got asked by people who were working on my car stereo of i had put a new cam in it, coz they said it sounded like it had.....and being ppl who worked with lots of modified cars, they would have heard heaps of cammed cars, so i take it as a compliment lol'

or maybe they just didnt know what they were talking bout, but for now ill take it haha

no I've noticed that - Sureflo systems seem to have a very distinctive sound. I wouldn't necessarily call it cammed - but it is individual. Haven't come across anything similar. I haven't seen how their system is designed - is it single mid pipe? That could explain the 'lumpy' sound
