EPDamo Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hi guys. Just wondering what setups people are running for hard driving. Went out for a quick blast night and had a bit of brake fade, got out and when I checked they were glowing red hot!!! Anyone else suffer from this? Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollieh17 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Braided lines all round, abs removed with braided lines, wms 110% disks, greenstuff pads (shit, go for something else)toyota dot 5.1 fluid. Thats my current setup and expecting it to be fine for a bit of fast road and maybe a track day or two Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Keri-WMS Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 The advantage of our 110% discs over every other OEM fit disc I've seen is the extra thermal mass, physical stiffness and cooling rate from the larger casting - this means for the same energy input you get a lower tempurature (this applies no matter what pads you use, how you drive or if the discs are grooved or not).
