[QUOTE=gslrallysport]Thanks James, greatly appreciate your feedback and experience with the pads, and glad we could help!

I've thrown further details on the pads in the business section:

No worries Greg. To many people only make a noise when they have a bad time with a product but never pipe up when they get a good product for a good price with good service.

Not sure if slotted discs make a big difference to shrieking pads or not.

I have also noticed a dramatic reduction in the amount of dust on my wheels....the stock Subaru pads were apalling for this and even they often made an absolute racket!

In the testimonials section it has one from an Evo driver for the A1RM, so they should have pads for Evo Brembo's.

That should mean they also do them for STI Brembo's as well.
[QUOTE=WRXTASY]I believe they may also have A1RM pads for STI's Brembo's as well through GSL Rallysport.[/QUOTE]

has anyone used QFM K500HPP.. same as HPX in cold and hot friction co-efficient with a slightly lower temp range of 0-500degrees celcius. i am presuming they would be similar spec to bendix advances?

on the subject of brakes, whats required in a full brake fluid flush? mechanically "vacuuming" out the fluid (ala auto tranny flush)

I had pruchase from GSL before and they are really professional. They offer great advice for your application. Back to the topic, I'm running RDA slotted F/R and QFM A1RM F/R. They are good bang for the bux with good performance. I use them for track (No Limit Event) and they held up very very well, manage to slice 2 sec of my personal best(maybe I was slow before). Big thumbs up

I believe that even if you have an odd fitment you can send them a set of old pads and they can apply new friction material to them...give them a call!!

Hi guys,

Sorry about the late reply, yesterday was a public holiday here in QLD.

Yep Brembo stuff isn't a problem, but is a bit more expensive. The fronts in HPX is $110, and the A1RM is $149. Got the fronts on the shelf, the rears are currently on back order but should be in stock pretty soon.

As for the rears, unfortunately both the HPX and A1RM are currently on a manufacturing back order (QFM just can't keep up with demand at the moment), but we can supply TRW Lucas, Acre or EBC in the interim. Pricing is the same as the fronts.

Yep, that's also a big bonus so if you guys have any weird aftermarket brake kits that you can't get decent pads for, so long as we can grab a sample and get it laser cut, then we can send to QFM to get relined, or can send old pads if you've got them also, provided the backing plates haven't been damaged.

Regards,
Greg
