Sometime I think you and Fred like arguing
It could be down to your driving style Dave, brake pads are user specific as well to a degree.

unlucky mate, its in good hands now though.

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession

Ds2500, decent enough braking without chewing paint work and discs up. I won't be fitting anything more extreme

 

[Dave.]

Yeah that's the plan mate, DS2500's, new discs and fluid once I've paid the bill for the current issue!

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession

If you havnt tryed a race pad you don't know how much better they perform over a good road pad like ds2500.

One you have a race pad you can't go back to road pads as they are rubbish in comparison.

Dave should have ditched the pas

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession

I appreciate that Chris, but for not killing wheels, paint and discs you need to compromise. I won't be fitting race pads unless the endurance CL's prove their worth

I found the pads only kill paint & wheels when the dust stays on there for a long time. Whilst using the pads when I was living at home and I used to was my car so often that I had no problem with the pads. It was whilst I was back at Uni when I couldn't was my cas as often that the pads killed the paint big time!

For my car now I will probably wash it after ever trackday so paint should stay nice even tho it's just a track car now so should be function over fashion.

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession

I notice that. All these motorsports techs seem to stay up late. Too much redbull fuel no doubt

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession

No they just don't get up early enough.

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession

F doesn't work late. He just sits in the middle of the workshop until the small hours of the morning surrounded by a years worth of mechanical detritus with fish and chips in one hand, and a laptop with a smashed screen in the other. I know this because I have witnessed it. Distressing stuff.

Part timer, tbh

FINALLY FINISHED READING THIS!!! lol. fantastic wot you have produced here dave, well impressed. I recently came up with the idea to spend some pennies on my toy, and you have inspired me now to do so. Anyway mind is set to spend, just deciding to go with turbo or sc...... and also need to decide to av a bash at it myself or leave it to the specialists.
well done!

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon obsession
