I've just fitted DBA 4000's slotted (front only) and DS2500 (front only) for $1,000 incl 1 hour labour. Don't remember the detail in between.

[QUOTE=Sethor]Jon suggested them as they are a very low dust pad, read good reviews on the current compound. Maybe consider the Yellow's as they are more race than the Reds but are not low dusting. I currently have the DS2500 in now which are nearly due for replacement, I was not that impressed with them very overrated pad especially for the money & I have had the common squealing issues which require me to pull them out to clean to make it stop.[/QUOTE]

yep same here with teh DS2500 have squealing issues...
on the stock rotor imo they a tard better then OEM pads haven tracked them yet...next tuning day is on the 10th..

might go next EBC red or Project Mu pads
the yellow stuff i think has to be warmed up not suited for streets read that some where

Im pretty sure Perth Brake parts were $269 for front pads ds2500's and i couldmof got more off if i mentioned i was from Perth wrx but didnt know.

Paoluch...do it properly...put on DBA 5000's...buy the rotors only from wherever (ask MMS, Perth Brake Parts, Tu Speed) and I have a pair of 114.3 alloy hats you can have for $120 the pair...

With love from Paris :p, will ascertain whether the rotors are due for replacement once i get it rolling with a few heat cycles. Thanks again ladies :)

American Dave 30-06-2009 03:45 PM

Do rotors and pads at the same time Jme. New car deserves pads and rotors anyway I reckon.

EXPLICIT 30-06-2009 05:18 PM

Used rotors bed in new pads, have every intention on changing to new rotors/pads.

[QUOTE=American Dave]I have Dixcel Heat Treated and Slotted Rotors and Dixcel Type M Pads for Brembos. Awesome grip, [B]and bugger all dust [/B]issues.[/QUOTE]

Is there such a thing with Brembo's? Mine are a nice colour of dark shaded gold after a week.

I would look at ALL alternatives to DBA rotors...
I think that DBA's are very over rated, they wear quickly, and are over priced.
considering they don't appear to be any better than RDA's in terms of quality.
