Default FG Turbo Pads Options

Hi Matt,

The DBA4000's still peforming well on my car. But pads will need a replace soon. Originally you supplied DS2500's front and Lucas on the rears.

I'm certainly happy with the performance of DS25000 their dust is a PITA.

Is there anything else worth considering at this price point (or maybe slightly above) instead of them with less dust?

Also - what would be the price braided lines (supply) to fit FG turbo sedan? Have you received any feedback from customers on this upgrade?

Thanks
vfast.

Good to hear but i think the front pads were the Ferodo DS Performance pads if you have the std brakes and there is no other performance pad available that is less dusty sorry.Braided lines are a good option and they will last longer than the rubber ones but i do not have specs on the hoses for that model at the moment sorry as the Brembo set up is different

Do you need another sample car to model the lines on? Like we did for the Territory :-)

That would work as i have seen a couple of different fittings on utes and the FG sedans with brembo's have different fittings than the BA BF series so yes we could get a sample car in.
