you running the standard d2 pads that come with??

just a word of warning that its 100% worth while upgrading to the race pads, higher grade ones as the standard ones they supply with the brake kit have a tendancy to go on fire under hard work.

Am I right in thinking you\'ve got those discs on the wrong rotation
I believe the idea is that the air is picked up in the groove and thrown outwards to disperse the heat and any dust created by the pads trapped in the groove is thrown out likewise. The way that discs is rotating any air picked up by the outer groove will transmit the heat back to the centre of the wheel !!

the grooves on the discs are not really for heat they are designed to stop the pad glazing from hard use. as far as forwards or backwards on the grooves some manufacturers specify which way round some dont but it does vary make to make.

My mate has these on his celica... But he has Carbon Lorraine pads for them(â,¬600)

We were at the ring there a little while ago and i cant believe how good they were.. Altho with the carbon pads he completely removed the groves from the left disc....!!!

He\'s gonna get better floating disc\'s next time... And a harder compound!

The pads will always squeak until they come up to temp...
