QFM High Performance Street and Track Pads!

[gslrallysport]

Hi mate,

HPX are available for the rear, $79 for the set. Not available for the front unfortunately. The pads that we recommend in place is a European performance brand called Remsa, which are $109 for the set, and in stock. Also the Remsa's come standard with the electronic wear sensor, so there's $20-$25 value in those....

Shipping is free when you order front and rear pads together, or else $8 per axle set individually.

Regards,
Greg

Hi,

How much are these pads for the front?

Polo GTI 9N3

D

I'd been thinking about new pads for a while and wanted to get some in time for a recent track day, but left it too late.

I've been running a larger brake setup on my Polo GTI for about 7 months now and it was satisfactory until the track day. After 3 x 15min sessions, my pads were glazed, smoking and the car was not stopping fast enough. After removing the glaze the pads have not felt right and the pedal seems to sink a long way down before I get adequate bite.

So I ordered a set of the A1RM's from Greg and GSL, came today. Pads looked good and fitted fine.

I went to my local mall with some break-in driving on the way. I was very cautions when I started driving as I thought they would be pretty average for the first bunch of kms.

Bite from cold, 1st time was great. Without any preparation the brakes bit harder than my last pads (stock Audi TT pads for the Audi TT Mk1 fwd setup). The brake feel has already improved and I dont feel the spongy feeling I had previously and before the track day. I was concerned that changing the pads was not going to change anything and that there was a problem / limitation elsewhere.

I'll give them some time to bed in and then give them a proper go, but for a very cost effective change, I'm pleased with how much more confidence I have and the ease of braking.

Props to Greg for his help, communication and quick shipping. Have to give this one a thumbs up.

a bit left field on this forum (I'll shoot you an email too, Greg).
Are you able to supply A1RM for my S15 Nissan 200SX?

Brakes are R33 GTST/296mm up front, and standard S15 at the rear - I'd like to do it all at once along with a full fluid refresh.
The last couple of track days I've noticed things aren't biting quite as much as I'd like.

Do you recommend switching rotors at the same time? Fronts are currently slotted RDA, rear are OEM solids.

[gslrallysport]

Hi Martin,

Yep, got thousands of A1RM on the shelf to suit S15! $119 per set front or rear.

I would stick with RDA slotted, and that's the exact pad/rotor combination I run in my rally car, along with TRW GP600 Dot 4 Racing Brake Fluid.

RDA Slotted rotors are $385 for the front pair, and $165 for the rear pair. TRW GP600 Dot 4 Racing Brake Fluid (which is always the first weakness in a track car) is $65 for a 1L bottle.

Shipping on just front and rear pads together (and fluid if needed) would be free, or else $33 on everything if you included rotors etc.

Greg

Whats price for QFM to suit front 288mm's 9N3 POLO GTI?

[gslrallysport]

Which pads were you after, or what are you using the car for? Just street, or track etc.?

[Dscott]

what pads would you recommend for spirited street driving?

Fronts only.

[gslrallysport]

Probably a brand called Remsa actually! I'm pretty sure the only QFM pad we've got on the shelf at the moment is the track A1RM one, whilst the Remsa are a phenomenally good pad, and rated to 650 degrees, which is more than enough for spirited street driving.

Remsa to suit the Polo GTi are $99 for the set, and include the electronic wear sensor.

Greg

Hey mate,

loving this i need some A1's for my rears ( dp1192) and a set for my wilwood dynapro lug mounts if you need the plates I can send you some hawk ones which you can destroy as the pad thickness is to great. The luggys need a thickness of 12mm Wilwood # 7812.

Hi mate,

Apologies about the late reply. We were closed last week whilst we relocated to a larger warehouse!

No dramas at all, $119 for the set, and on the shelf.

Yep, if you've got plates available that will be great as it's not a pad we've ever got made by QFM. If you can supply the pads, the cost to you as a custom set, will be $149 for the set.

Regards,
Greg

No worries where do I send them too? Do you need me to send you the specs?

[gslrallysport]

Sent them to:

GSL RallySport
Shed B, 56 Woodville Place
Annerley QLD 4103

Nup, those numbers you've given us before, with a 12mm thickness is all we need to know.

Greg

Have you any HPX pads for the rear of a mk4 golf gti (99.5 model) & how much??
If so is it possible to pick them up as i'll be around Annerley this week
Cheers

Hi mate,

Apologies about the late reply! Just sold out of the last set of HPX on the shelf, but will happily do the next pad up (European made Remsa) for the same price if you want.

Greg
