    Fitted some Brembo Z04 pads to my blade yesterday.

    All I can say is jesus they don't half bite!!

    I'm still running standard calipers, discs and m/c. But the bite compared to the Brembo RC pads is something else. Pinky braking from now on.

    I'd not recommend these for road use either.

    Really, i thought they were awesome in the dry, but in the wet they were pure scary, id come up at the end of park straight at cadwell, knocing on at a few mph's, and find my brakes worked as effectively as 1970's pram brakes.

    never used them since, stuck to my trusty EBC HH or SBS Dual Carbons.

    Could be a temp thing? Still late 20's here even in the rain.

    But I gave them a go yesterday (it's monsoon here in SG) and they seemed fine. Off to Pasir Gudang this weekend (old WSB track) to give them a test.
