Hi Matt,
I have recently bought a 07 BFII Typhoon with 4-1pot brake setup, knowing that in the next few months I will need new pads (at the front mainly). I have used Lucus pads in the recent past and really like them (at your recommendation), minimal dust and great bite, but they seem to need warming up a tad on a cold day first up. I have also read about the Hawk pads but they sound like they are more suited to the track which I'm HIGHLY unlikely to do. And many talk about GreenStuff and RedStuff pads being used in 325mm and 322mm premium brakes for XR6T and XR8's. My actual question (after all that), is what would you recommend (budget = $200 to $300)? I really have liked the Lucus product on my old car with 322mm fronts and stock rears (on my 04 Futura) but are they not suited to F6 application? Thanks for your time!

Ok, so its now time to get the numbers together and do the brakes.
On top of the pads, I need the front discs. I'm told the slotted RDA discs for 4 pot Brembos are pretty good, so can I get a price on those and the equivalent DBA slotted fronts for comparison? And your recommendation? Side note, I had someone today said that RDA pads were good... Never heard that before, your thoughts? So in total I need front rotors, and front and rear pads please, thanks.

I went to the DBA website to read up about the discs. All I could find info on a 4000 or 5000 Clubspec disc that was designed for the HSV.
Can you give me more info?
