[gslrallysport]

Hey Matt,

I have a Vy Clubsport with the 2 spot performance brakes ( 330mm ) I am going to need front and rear replacements for rotors and pads. Car is only a cruiser with spirited driving so no track work or drag strip use.

What sort of package can you recommend ?

Cheers

Luke

I'm closing in on 90,000kms on the original pads and rotors for my 2011 VW Golf R, so I'm going to be needing to replace soon.

I've heard Remsa do some good quality stuff for this.

Suggestions.

The fact that I have got 90,000 out of the original brake pads gives an indication that this car is mainly a highway cruiser so doesn't get the brakes used that much...

Hi id,

The pad I would recommend would be a brand called Remsa. Remsa is a European performance pad which is rated to 650 degrees, and with a high carbon content, they provide low rotor wear. Also the Remsa come with noise reducing features such as a centre relief groove and side chamfers in the pad material, as well as a soft backing shim. We've been supplying Remsa to high performance street road cars like Porsche and Ferrari for many years, but the pricing has now become such that we're now able to expand it to most road cars. I can supply these pads for $143 inc gst for the front set and $90 inc gst for the rear set.

The rotors I can supply are also a Euro spec high carbon content brand called Fremax. I can supply these for $99 inc gst per front rotor and $86.40 inc gst per rear rotor.
Freight to VIC would be $15.

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

EBC Brakes is a world leader in the manufactureing of disc brake wear components. In the 1970’s, EBC brakes was the first to develop a complete aftermarket range for the motorcycle industry, however EBC brakes are rapidly expanding in the automotive industry. EBC Brakes has become a world leader in sport, high performance and race brake pads and disc/rotors with a massive range of products. EBC claims to develop and manufacture the largest range of disc brake pads in the world, from mountain bikes, motorcycles, passenger cars, LCV, HGV, PSV, and rail applications using a range of specialist materials all developed in house at its R&D facility in the UK. The total range of EBC brake pads is supported by a range of Brake Discs specifically designed to complement the performance characteristics of EBC pads. These range from the Standard OEM replacement disc, Turbo Grooved Discs and Ultimax Sports discs.



Recently EBC brakes have launched another ground breaking material with its ECO friendly Ultimax 2 brake friction material that completely eliminated all heavy metals and sulphides. A bi-product of cheap brakes is a give off of toxic gas like Xylene vapour and in some cases Toluene, which are both nerve gases, and these are strictly forbidden at EBC brakes. EBC Brakes are proud and conscious of the products they produce and its impact on the environment, and therefore will never target to be the cheapest brakes.



The R&D engineers are responsible for researching, testing and homologation of not just established production formulations but new elements and ingredients and production methods that can make pads more consistently and with higher quality thresholds. Once formulated, every EBC Brakes compound is subject to conformity of production tests and fine-tuned to ensure that the product performs to exacting standards. Every batch of EBC brake pads is subjected to extensive testing including destructive sheer testing, density testing, sonar and ultrasonic testing, compressibility testing and friction level testing.



Many brake manufacturers of today still use antiquated and cheap “steel fibre” based technology, EBC lead the way in clean and advanced brake formulations. Working with Aramid Fibres, gives EBC brakes endless flexibility n formulation that is unheard of with cheap bulky steel fibre competitor products. As a results, regular independent tests, EBC brake products are shown to not only meet but exceed OEM manufacturer parts but to also have a strong pad lifetime, low disc/rotor abrasion, heat performance, reduced break dust and be environmentally friendly.

Greenstuff and Redstuff branded EBC brake pads are aramid fibre automotive brake pads using high-tech fibres such as DuPont Kevlar and Twaron. EBC use these types of fibres to produce premium quality pads that deliver low disc wear with minimal dust. All EBC pads feature the company’s “Brake-In” coating which helps to reduce bed-in time significantly. Centre line slots, to prevent cracking and noise and edge chamfers to further offset vibration and noise are all standard features on all EBC brake pads.

http://brakesdirect.com.au/fremax

Fremax began producing brake rotors and drums for the domestic aftermarket in 1990, and since then it has become the largest Latin-American manufacturer of brake rotors for passenger cars and commercial vehicles, focusing on replacement braking products for automotive equipment manufacturers and the aftermarket. Fremax’s mission as a company is to revolutionise, in a consistent and sustainable manner, the production and commercialisation of auto parts in the worldwide market.

Fremax is the official supplier to the most competitive car racing categories in South America, such as the Stock Car, Porsche Cup, F-3000 and Montana Cup. These competitive rotors are made of high carbon cast iron alloy with chromium which can withstand extreme conditions of use. When compared to the previous rotors used by these cars the new design allowed a reduction of rotor temperature at braking spots from 360 to 200 degrees Celsius. A better braking efficiency was thus achieved, allowing shorter braking space and a gain of 3 seconds per lap.



Fremax provides a special finishing in a wide variety of brake disc and drum applications, which consists of painting the hub with an automotive paint that withstands high temperatures and ensures maximum protection against corrosion. Fremax’s cast iron alloy rotors have higher carbon content, which have been successfully used in high-performance car racing applications. The reason for this being that the higher the carbon content, the more optimal thermal conductivity is increased, it helps to prevent brake judder, lessens braking noise due to a better damping coefficient higher resistance to distortion and thermal cracking and finally, increased braking safety and performance.
