 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 A1RM - 0.40 - 0.48 - 0-780 For all the latest reports on QFM's Performance Pads checkout: QFM Performance Website with URL'd customer feedback!!! <<<--- Clicky! HPX - $79 per axle set front or rear A1RM - $119 per axle set front or rear ALSO IF YOUR CAR ISN'T LISTED ABOVE give us a bell as we have the largest range of QFM Performance Pads on the shelf ready to go. Everything from VB-VE Commodores, to AE86 Sprinters, to Alfa Romeos to Mazda 323s and plenty more we have on the shelf. As always, any question or dramas feel free to give us a bell, payment can either be credit card or direct deposit.

More news just in!!! QUOTE Just a quick update. Went to Winton over the long weekend with a set of QFM A1RM's which performed outstandingly. The GTiR has very average brakes to begin with which normally fit inside a 14" rim. But the pads (with std rotors) performed extremely well with no fade. Was literlly off my seat slightly standing on the brakes at the end of the straight. http://performanceforums.com/forums/showpo...mp;postcount=62 A1RM fitted to WRX! QUOTE I did an AHG tuning arvo on the 24th April and I was in need of some decent pads but as ever money and time came in to the choices of what was available. I know DS2500 are the usual route to take however I found the pricing of what was available in Perth rather hard to swallow and the interstate postage some people wanted to charge was scandalous so I began to search around for the alternatives and came across GSL Rallysport and the QFM pads....at the time they were even running a half price rears and free delivery offer. So I placed an order for their A1RM track pads, they had sold out of WRX pads because of the special offer however I was assured that because of the trackday booking my order was priority and I would get my pads on time and at the special offer price. Emails and calls were returned very quickly which was a refreshing change. As promised my pads were delivered to my place of work on time and I fitted them that night. Out on the road they felt good from brand new. I gave them half a dozen 80-20kmh 'slows' and they immediately firmed up and they started biting hard. They did not need any more running in. Under normal driving conditions they feel just like the stock Subaru pads, no squeeling, juddering, grinding and they work just like a stock pad from cold. On the trackday they worked brillinatly. First corner they worked straight away...by the second and third corners I could really lean on them. We were running 2 laps at a time on the circuit and they did not fade at all or even begin to smell like they were getting hot. On the skid pan where you are only jabbing the brakes and not building any heat in them they still worked exactly as you would expect. Now obviously at AHG its only short stints of work but I have no reason to believe the pads would not cope with heavier use. I plan on giving them a go at Wanneroo soon. Dont be put off by the price guys, these pads really do as they say on the box and make a fantastic every day, multi-use performance pad!! Just for the record...I have no link to GSL Rallysport or QFM other than being a satisfied customer. http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/showpost.php?p...mp;postcount=17 QFM A1RM Fitted to S14 Silvia QUOTE Installed my front pads last week (A1RM) with DBA4000 rotors and so far Im very pleased. Initial bite is very good and they seem to pull the car up very quickly. So far much better than my old RB74s. http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?s...t&p=5148992 |

QUOTE (turbofreak @ Jun 8 2009, 03:54 PM)  have you got front and rears in stock for an 88 mx6 turbo? Hi mate, Apologies about the late reply. We were at Rally Bega over the long weekend and am only just catching up now. Yep, got both front and rear on the shelf in A1RM. $119 per set, free shipping if front and rear ordered (ie. $238 all up). Regards, Greg |

QUOTE (turbofreak @ Jun 11 2009, 10:17 PM) How long would it be until you would be able to get HPX pads? A1RM is a bit overkill at the moment, bit of a toss up i guess. will get back to you soon. Hi mate, The HPX pads aren't a pad that we do off the shelf for the MX6. We can order it in, but it would be a 6-8 weeks wait for manufacture. Or otherwise if it's just a standard road car, we can do the Super X (pad below HPX) for $49 per set. Regards, Greg |

QUOTE (lil_foy @ Jun 22 2009, 10:54 PM) Hi mate, My oem honda pads seem to fade out halfway through a mountain drive at a steady pace due to the constant on and off the brakes. Will the hpx provide enough braking support for my application? I had the pads smoking on various occations so I need to look for an upgrade. I also look at doing the occational track day at queensland raceway. Would the hpx be fine for the very occational track day. Thanks. Hi mate, The fade you were getting was definitely pad fade (rock hard pedal and no brakes), not fluid fade (soft spongy pedal and no brakes)??? What pads are you currently running? The HPX is a Bendix Ultimate equivalent in terms of performance, so quite good for fast street, but if you're looking at doing track work you really need to step up to the A1RM. Regards, Greg |

Hi Andrew, QUOTE (lil_foy @ Jun 23 2009, 05:44 PM) Atm im running factory honda pads which came with the car. I can get very cheap goodridge braided lines which I will look at when the time comes to upgrade. Im sure its the pads as factory pads will burnout before a decent dot4 fluid would im presuming. The pedal was hard for a period till I then heated up the fluid because I had to slowdown so much with fucked pads. (I was still driving at a steady pace so holding on the brakes harder longer would be the only thing that'd slightly help, there was nowhere to stop) Ok, no dramas, sounds like pads! Make sure if you're getting fluid you get something with a dry boiling point over 300 degrees. The stuff we personally use and recommend is TRW GP600 (Dot 4 compatible, and 312 degrees dry), and is cheaper than most at $65 for a 1L bottle. QUOTE I will be getting some a1rm pads once my parts come from japan and I get some new rotors. Im presuming they are of a ceramic compound? Organo metalic. QUOTE Where are you located? If other then qld how much will postage be? If you're local to Mt Gravatt we'll either delivery it for nothing, or throw it on Couriers Please. Shipping is free if front and rear purchased together, or else $8 per set individually. Regards, Greg |

More Outstanding Feedback on A1RM!!! QUOTE A1RM are fantastic, more bite than a standard pad when dead cold, and only get better when they get hot, and better still when they start to smoke up and the rotors go blue! Bendix Ultimate's which I had before these for roughly the same price are absolutely terrible in comparison. Pads aren't noisy, basically the A1RM is awesome, will buy again in the future! http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?s...t&p=5238434 |
