QFM A1RM - Why pay more!!!

QUOTE
Installed a set of A1RM's front and rear just before Z Fest. By far the best value brake pads I've ever used, no pedal fade from high speed and hardly any dust which is what I expected from a high performance pad. I liken the performance of these to an EBC Red Stuff but at a fraction of the price!

QFM A1RM again outperforming expectations on the track!

QUOTE
GSL,

The pads arrived and were fitted up just in time for a recent club track day at Wakefield Park.

To be honest, I was absolutely amazed at their performance. They work well from cold and have so far not made any noise. When warmed up (one or two corners at the most), their bite was unbelievable (on my MX5).

It felt like I had the car standing on its nose braking into Turns 2 and 10 at Wakefield!

Their performance allowed me to brake much later than I have previously and I actually had to mentally refrain from hitting the brakes early.

And the best thing, they make minimal dust!

Regards,
Tony

QFM A1RM Fitted to JZA80 Supra!

QUOTE
Got the A1RM fitted on the car with the brake fluid you guys sell. Even though I'm still bedding in the brake pads, I have to say you can feel the difference in the braking power these have. I had Bendix Ultimates prior to the A1RMs and they are a world of difference!

Awesome pads, No dust no noise. Worked far better then my previous set of Bendix Pads. Recommend to anyone whether you drive an import or not.

QFM A1RM fitted to JZA80 Supra!

UPDATE: Took these out at Sandown... no brake fade what so ever! the pads / fluid held out really well, and was still pulling up the car after a whole day of hard braking both in the wet and dry! Totally impressed by these pads and I highly recommend them!

QFM Pads Fitted to BA Falcon!

QUOTE
Hi,

I own and drive a BA Futura 4.0L auto sedan. I was so impressed with the performance of your QFM pads on my BA Falcon I though I would drop you a email.

Ok firstly I spoke to someone there questioning on what pads and what improvement I could expect and was told QFM pads and around 10% or so, ok that was sure a understatement.

I had the QFM pads and new DBA slotted rotors fitted and I got to say I was very surprised the 10% improvement was wrong try 40 to 50%.

I have found that now braking is effortless less peddle pressure is required and the actually braking action is a major improvement, when I say peddle pressure I mean before on the standard BA pad and rotors you had to apply a reasonable heavy pressure to apply the brakes where now its almost just a toe pressure to apply the same braking effort.

Stopping from 100K’s the difference is easily 3 to 4 car lengths and as before less peddle pressure. One of the keys here as well as the stopping improvement is the requirement to use less peddle pressure this is something that the older drivers would appreciate not to mention make for safer driving.

I feel fitting the QFM pads and DBA rotors has made my vehicle much safer to drive and given me more security in the braking department.

QFM HPX Fitted to S13!

QUOTE
If there were any doubters, I have the HPX pads on my S13 (with an R33 GTS-T hub/brake conversion) and oh my God it pulls up very fast on RDA slotteds. they can take a fair bit of abuse but if you were ever going to track the car you'd go for A1RMs.

For the money, hard to fault!

QFM HPX Pads Fitted To VW Golf!

QUOTE
I have had the HPX pads front and rear of my 97 Golf 2.0 for a month or two now and I'm a big fan. The price was one of the best I could find, who ever I spoke to at GSL was really nice and the pads themselves stop great. Way better then the supercheap ones I had before which cost more. And my wheels are staying clean much longer then they used to. Very happy customer. They also got to Sydney the day after order for next to nothing cost.

Just giving these guys a good wrap, awesome service and support.
Used the QFM pads on my EVO3. I have only used them for 15kms(after a quick bed in) at the Pittsworth Srints, work great from cold, and better with slight warm up to the dummy grid. My only advise is with EVO3's with QFM's is you'll need to a bit lighter on the brake pedal as these grip up well.


I would have liked to have used these more but my EVO hasnt moved since September due to a "Street to Track"/Ksport Coilover leaking strut issue, once this is rectified i'll give more feed back on how the pads work with longevity...

Hey mate,
After front and rear A1RM pads for a 2001 Honda integra dc2 type r
how much roughly?

Hi mate,

$119 per set front or rear.

hey mate,
i came around yesterday to get a set of pads for my integra, was going to get my rotors machined and turns out they will be better off
replacing.

Think for my 2000-01 dc2 type r
front rda slotted rotors were $175 if im correct
and i will probably just need stock rear replacements

if i could get a price for those that would be great.

cheers

No dramas, with these it's probably just easiest if RDA send them direct to you. Just PM me your full name, delivery address (preferably a work or business address!!) and email and I can fire you through an invoice with direct deposit details, or else credit card over the phone is also available. Should have your phone number on file, so won't need that.

Any questions let me know!

QFM HPX wins again against the competition!

QUOTE
QFM HPX vs. Bendix Ultimate

...Ultimates are like a set of Ferodo generic pads!

In My Opinion - I have tried both on my VX Commodore:

I had Bendix Ultimates and I found them to be noisy, very very dusty and it liked to eat out my rotors, they pull-up was okayish but I found they didn't have enough "bite" for my liking.

The QFM HPX Pads - I had them fitted to new rotors as the old ones were chewed out and could not be machined further. I purchased standard rotors after the pads had been bedded in wow.. simply wow! The pull up from them was so much better, and ABS kicked in much much quicker hardly any dust and alot less noisy.

Still some squeaks here and there but all in all, a much better improvement over the Ultimates.

The Brutal Truth About A1RM!

QUOTE
I use A1RM on the track/street on a heavy arse underbraked car.

fucking brilliant, not sure how anyone drives a car without them, come into their own in the triple digit speed range.

brake dust is a royal mofo, but that's life i guess. a stock euro car with tuv standard pads dust just as bad and they are oem and don't stop as good.

i hear good things about ds2500 but at double or triple the price, forget that, the a1rm will last 3 track days for me.

not even harsh on rotors like some people toss on about, the pads are rather soft imho.
