QFM's Performance Street pads fall into two compounds. The first is the HPX pad which is a perfect choice for street cars looking for excellent braking performance whilst retaining all the qualities of a good street pad. The HPX pads are ideal for high performance street cars looking for higher working temperatures with reduced fade, and also for Four Wheel Drives or vehicles looking to enhance their towing capacity or safety.The HPX pads unlike many pads in this performance range are virtually dust free, whilst maintaining low rotor wear.

QFM's second high performance street pad is the A1RM compound and provides QFM with its club sport track pad. It is ideal for high performance street cars that take to the track to test the limits, whilst still being a streetable pad. The A1RM is ideal for club level rally and hill climb where brakes are required right from the first corner!

SPECIFICATIONS
Formulation - Cold Friction - High Friction - Temperature ©
HPX - 0.41 - 0.42 - 0-550

Just to add my experience, took abit for qfm to make the pads but as soon as greg got them, he got my address that morning and the pads arrived that afternoon.

A1RM pads have good initial bite even when cold, better than the bendix pads i had in there. Havent had a chance to try them on the track yet but from the experience on the road should be a great performer.

Hi mate, No dramas, most pads are in stock here, just occasionally you get those waits from QFM because they're so busy...

Let us know how you go with them!

Well I've just got back from Oz where I spent 2000km's driving on a new set of A1RM pads from gslrallysport.

These are an excellent road-track day pad and a good compromise for those that want one pad to everything!!! Much cheaper then Endless, ProjectMu, SBS, Ferodo etc and as good or better...

IMHO these are excellent, very cheap (mine were about $120 for the fronts IIRC) and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

If you want a new set of sport pads then these are the pad to get...

A1RM front and rears for evo 9? If not available then HPX? Thanks.

Post #10

Hi mate,

Unfortunately the EVO front Brembo's are still underdevelopment, and are about 6-8 weeks away. The rears we've on the shelf in both HPX and A1RM, $110 and $149 respectively, and $10 shipping by them self. If you want to order both now and put the fronts on back order we can still honor the half price rears deal.

$177.50 for front and rear HPX delivered, or $236 front and rear for A1RM delivered.

Regards,
Greg

Hi mate,

Apologies about the delay! There was some issues over Christmas/New Years and we're only just getting the backing plates now, so they're probably still about 6-8 weeks away. As per last time got both HPX and A1RM's on the shelf for the rear.

Greg

Hi bud,

Unfortunately no new news. We've still got rears on the shelf, but the fronts are still under development, and at least a month and a bit away yet.

Apologies again about the delay. If you desperately need pads I can hook you up with a set of TRW Lucas pads at cost price to get you through.

Regards,
Greg

Awesome pads, i use them on all my cars.

Most memorable experience with them was with my S2 RX7 that I had a few years ago. I used to be very hard on braking to the point where I was going through a set of Bendix pads every 3-4 weeks and I always has excess brake dust. Not with QFM, and they lasted at least 8-10 weeks which was awesome...

Quick run down on the pads:
- The HPX is a Bendix Ultimate type performance pad, good for about 550 degrees, whilst being virtually dust free, and low rotor wear. $79 per axle set.
- The A1RM is a Ferodo DS2500 type performance pad, good for about 780 degrees, but will still work from dead cold (A1RM and HPX have the same cold friction), and relatively low dust and rotor wear. I run the A1RM in both my daily road car and rally car and it isn't a compromise in either. $119 per axle set.

** Still got the half price rears deal! **

QFM A1RM News just in!!!

QUOTE
The guys at the end of the quarter mile look at me weird when i stop from 200 down to 40 in a very short period, it's not that i really want to, it's just that it is so effortless too as the retardation is so great.

I haven't had them on the track yet, but once the speedo is in the three digit zone, those a1rm seem to be the ****.

Best pad i have used so far, higher the speed the better they work, maybe it is a heat thing, but at these higher speeds they really like it.

In saying that they are still perfect on the street, as well, very important to me. No weird noises at all at legal street speeds just once you get the speed up, like freeway + speeds, they work very well.

Would have no dramas recommending them to anyone with a car they need to stop well from higher speeds.

QFM A1RM on a high modified high horsepower heavy weight VE V8 Calais!

QUOTE
I have had the QFM A1RM pads on for a whiles now and they have seen some hard driven Ks and bit of circuit work and they perform extremely well at full noise. What I have noticed of late though is that the longer I have them on the car the better they have become. The pedal is simply getting firmer and more responsive and the stopping power in normal daily drive conditions is even better than when they were new.

The VE Calais-V is one heavy mumma to pull up, but this combo does it well!

QFM A1RM on a Nissan S14... and I've never heard them called this before!

QUOTE
I'm running A1RM's f&r - I haven't noticed any excessive dust yet.

Around town & through some hills they feel great, good initial bite that progressively gets stronger until your eyes pop out your skull and your foot gets massaged by ABS. I haven't experienced any noise/squealing with these pads either. I'm very keen to give them a proper run, when I do I'll try and write up some more details.

I came off a set of Ultimates to these, these make the ultimates feel like the OEM nissan pads, prefer them over Green Stuff also.

A1RM: sexual chocolate
Ultimates/Green Stuff: what should be factory pads
Factory pads: feels like your hanging bra's out the window to slow down

(Standard rotors & calipers on an S14)

Comparing the ferodos (DS performance) with the a1rm. The a1rm has better bite and feel when warm and as mentioned before at high speed. The ferodos are very dusty as well.
