          I'm not overly optimistic that I'll be joining next week as I can't load my base tune till the weekend, than it'll need some development... [emoji45] so frustrating, but getting there.

            • Re brake temps. I'm running new DBA T3 4000 series 312mm rotors with Brembo 4 pot calipers and QFM A1RM pads on the front.

              So, swapping the wheels back from the semi slicks to the daily's after Lakeside, I checked the heat paint markings on the new rotors. To my surprise, the green paint, rated at 460c has turned white which means it's exceeded that temp, though the Orange (550c) and Red (630c) are still those colours. "The ideal temperature condition for high performance brake pads and rotors is between 458 oC and 550 oC which is when the peak friction condition is achieved."

              Thermo-graphic Heat Paint on CLUBSPEC & HEAVY DUTY Series rotors - Disc Brakes Australia

              Sweet, sounds like I got something right

                  • my right pink one is half white.

                    the left one is still fully pink.

                    I guess pink is between red and white

                    but both sides' orange are yellow.

                    I guess I am heavier...

                        "my clamp meat thingy", haha, I have no idea what you're talking about. My left side is an off-white greeny colour, the right is white, which is consistent with yours, albeit at lower temps.

                        I guess being DGS rather than manual may contribute a little to it. As would brake pad compound according to the DBA site:

                        "If your driving conditions force the Orange paint to change to yellow then you should consider more a specialized high temperature pad compound, review the car setup or alter your driving style. When exposed to temperatures in excess of 630 oC (Red paint) permanent fatigue and stress concentration is greatly accelerated which may result in premature cracking or warping of the disc rotor. DBA does not warrant disc rotors that have been subjected to motor sport use."

                        This is why I upgraded from the Remsa pads, they started out as being adequate, but deteriorated after numerous heat cycles. Would have been interesting to know what temps they were doing.

                        Good to have that measure though, and to know that I'm operating within the window.
