Brake pads Brembo or Bendix
I fitted it to my Rallye. Braking power was great, but with the ABS system it losed feel. I removend the ABS and went on a conventional system and is wonderful
I've driven a Cupra R and can attest to their great stopping ability. IMO not as good as the AP's but for the price difference, they are worth it.
i have it installed on my corrado g60 and it is a great upgrade just bolted straight on (you do have to be carefull that your wheelsize is ok, et value has to be low enough) Overhere in Belgium and the Netherlands almost every corrado swapped to the cupra brakes (I know my self at least 20 people who have them and are very very very happy with them)
Just when I think I've got the RK Spyder figured out, the incredibly precise steering, crushingly effective Brembo four-piston-caliper brakes deliver a thrilling driving experience that begs for a track day before I reach 4th gear.
Those Brembo brakes haul the car down from silly speeds repeatedly on the track with no sign of fade or sogginess.
Bendix Titanium pads with new rotors 4/20/02
i didn't know we had brembo brakes.
My friend has them on his 91 MR2 and he said he can feel the diference from stock and that they squeak a tiny bit during light braking.
So what pads are you using with the Brembos? Was it $320 for four discs?
I put in some new rear brake pads today. The frist brakes I had were Autozone brand. Well, they went on fine on the driver side. On the passenger side It was near impossible to push the piston back far enough to get the pads on. I still needed about another 1/16th of an inch. I even bled brakes a little to make room for the piston compression. Still no luck. So I went back and bought some Bendix that were about 1/16th less in thickness. So, I put them on the passanger side. I had to wrestle with the piston again - that mofo would not budge. Finally I got it. So, I go for a drive with Albany brakes on one side and Bendix on the other. A horrible scaping erupts from the driver's side. The side that went on much easier. Visual inspection looked ok. So I took them off and they were all scraped to heck. Strange, as that was the easy side. So, I put the Bendix pads on that side and everything is fine.
