Carbone loraine rc5+ fitted...

[imprezaworks]

So in preperation to the trackday at the end of the month i thought id get the new pads and discs fitted so i could get used to them. from cold better than standard, and as they are used more they get much better . No rattling or any annoying noises, cant comment on the brake dust issue as ive only had them on a few days. Big test will be on track but initial thoughts are very good indeed. And i found them cheaper going direct to carbone loraine too, guy was helpfull and the pads turned up within two days. Thought id share.

Great pads, I had the non + version and they were much better than the Ds2500's I have atm although the brake dust destroyed my paint but im lead to believe this doesn't happen on the + version.

I hope it doesnt as im uber ghey about my car. Will report back when ive had them on longer, allways good to know how people get on with stuff.

Good luck removing the iron filings from your wheels, front wings and doors....

Mine old RC5's did have a lovely firework effect when braking hard, had a mate call me up whilst when he was driving past me as he thought my brakes were on fire :S For reference this is what they did to my old cars paint:

You can see where ive tried to rub it away, that was AFTER a clean btw :S

Aren't the RC5+'s meant to be better than the normal ones in terms of iron fallout though.

Yes thats why i bought them. I knew the previous ones had issues
