Trev Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 In before someone says the rotors are backwards. Let me know how the yellows go when cold, I had EBC green stuff in the daily but they weren't good until they heated up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob 5000 Posted April 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 The Yellows stopped fine when cold but they are now worn down to almost the backing plates. They did 4 runs of 15mins each and not every lap was flat out as I backed off at times to get into some space. So stopping power good, wear rate crap!

Sounds like they are softer and are a better street pad then the greens. Edited April 10, 2011 by Trev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 5000 Posted April 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 those advan tyres were a bolt on 6secs a lap quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 5000 Posted May 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 To overcome the problem of the car tearing thru brakes today we added some brake ducts to get more air to the rotors to aid in cooling it down. Our new race logo turned up as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onikage Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Nice SX, looks like its a real quick car. Let us know if the ducting to the brakes helps with cooling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 5000 Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) Have finished fitting the ducting for the brakes and have started putting in the lap timer onto the dash. Edited May 22, 2011 by Rob 5000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch-12 Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 hey rob you will have to have a look at our supercar brake ducts one day ill show you some secrets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ella Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 i too am interested in finding out how well the pads hold up with the brake cooling ducts installed. Considering this mod for the red car to help consumables like pads and rotors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 5000 Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Will do mitch. We also pulled out the inner gaurds and cut off the tin shield around the inside of the rotors as heat build up is killing the pads.Got a set of Project MU pads coming.
