Brakes
 

Had the brakes apart today & changed pads to Ferodo DS3000 & wow what a pad. Very pleased. While i was there i cleaned painted or pollished everythng in sight. Took the car out for a spin over Camber way to bed the pad's in. At 130kph you can lock the bloody wheels if you want. Thanks Neil for the heads up. :10:

Thats interesting as I was about to order mine. Was thinking of Performance Friction, but have heard the DS3000's are good. Will look into costs etc.

Performance Friction are very good! The choice is yours. The DS like a bit of heat in them first. I found with the PF's they work straight away. :drive:

Is your ABS not working then or are Evos that advanced yet.:rofl::whistle::getmecoat:



Lucky for your kind of driving the I would have thought the PFs will be.:doubleup:

But like everything its down to personal choice.

Surely all done on a private road.

Had two sets of DS3000's and was well happy. There're the fast road pads are they not?

Roo

They dont recomend for road just race but i find them ok. Many other people are using them for road use:nod:

Yep, ordering PF's from Alyn.

I'm happy with the 2500's you can fade them on track (just) but slightly nicer on the road.

A local police man had a little word with me today about my previous post. Camber & 130 lock up's. As you can see ive now changed that to kph. How the hell did he know that???? I know the guy and have done for years but he would not tell me how he seen the post. So guy's we are being watched big brother & all that :ninja:

I agree a very good pad i just took some advice off Neil as he was useing the 3000 at the Ring. Its not often he get excited about pad's :doubleup:

Mate, this forum is watched, as are the others.

Generally, a Mod or Admin would have contacted you / amended the post. Just because of the potential of being watched.

Hence my post in the "Roads to drive in this country" in this country stating that we could find roads that test you within the legal road limits.

Thanks for posting this though Nige, as it's a good heads up for everyone to think before they post their exploits :norty:

:ok:

ABS is for puffs!!!:rofl:

No probs Nige

But best not give too much away or you`ll be passing me !:fool:

Sugar Puffs ??? ;)

One day mate Ha! Ha! in my dreams. Just to add for the people who dont know who Scoobyslayer is. He can do sub 8mins at the Ring with 330bhp in car that is aprox 1750kg on std suspention. Now that is some peddeling :nod:

Without doubt, Neil is the "Ringmaster".

But on "Niges Hill" only Nige can turn a 2 lane German "A" road into a 3 lane German "A" road. Nige has got a set of kahoonas like a Tyranosaurus!

No mate just a small brain that sometimes see's A RED MIST :cuckoo:

Cheers guys but seriously stop or i wont get my helmet on.:drive:

I dont know who was more scared, me :sos: or the poor unsuspecting German coming towards us, on second thoughts his face was a picture!!! :-o

"the ring master" now thats not a good title:tumbleweed:lol

I think your on the wrong forum!!:rofl:

You are now, by title.

Ringmaster
:five:

Fantastic!!

I suppose it serves me right for calling myself scoobyslayer on a subaru forum:fool:

It had to be done oh wise and powerful one :worthy::worthy::worthy:

Perhaps I can repay your generousity somehow...

I am sure i can think of something before next years ring trip :waiting:

Maybe a lap with you?

I'll wear a nappy just in case :whistle:

No, in seriousness mate, it's just good to have you aboard. And the knowledge you'll bring on the run up to next years trip will be invaluable. :mrgreen:

I am getting DS3000's next time Nige.

You will love them mate.:doubleup:

Im sure we can accomodate that assuming we have a car sorted by then.
There is a small chance the supercoz may be ready by then

I'd love that mate :cool:

Sorry mate there is no way i am getting in a 650bhp rear wheel drive Escort with you at the Ring!!!:acid:

And there was me thinking you had big kahoonahs too :roll:

Ya big girl:yeah:

Why not?

RWD is more fun:angst:
