Triton Brake Upgrades - Rotors and Calipers

[Cowboy Dave]

Which rda pads did you use? So far I can see extreme, ultimax, gp max, I assume there might even be a standard version too?

Extreme, they were a package deal with the rotors.

So Ive Decided to go for DBA T2 4000 Slotted Rotors with Bendix HD Pads. Im going to buy these braided brake lines as well. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/HEL-Braided- ... Fbg0mM8ATw

I've been running this combo for the last 85000km's. Still going strong.

Hi everyone.
I have 10 mth old MQ, and from day one I haven't been happy with the brakes.
Yeah sure they stop, but give little confidence, should I need to stop in a hurry.

There is no real "bite" when braking.
So apart from the rotor & pad change done by Ultimate mentioned above, has anyone fitted an after market pad, along with a disc machine.

I've heard EBC 'Green Stuff Pads, and Bendix 4WD pads are good.

Any first hand experience or thoughts would be appreciated

Thanks, monstar

i dont have a mq but im running these ceramic pads with DBA T3 rotors and i reckon there great

the pads are made here in brisbane
http://qfm.com.au/

now i have spoken to a brake shop here in brissy and he is a bendix dealer and these QFM dealer
he prefers these pads over the bendix

so i said i give them a go
they work great no squeling little dust no brake fade and pull up my challenger very well

only bad i can say is that they take a bit more time to bed in then others and they feel a little spungy until bedded in
i thought i had air in lines but then it just disapeared after a couple hundy kms

i spoke with brake shop he said that is normal trust me it will go away and it did they just get better and better
i have had on there now for some time and the rotors are still looking great i thought that the pads being ceramic would eat the rotors but nope still look great after 30k+ on there
one day when this dam heat drops under 30+deg c i will pull of the calipers and have a captain cook at what it looks like in there ....

but yer great combo
i dont have any affiliation to these brands

just my opinion
cheers pete
