Hi all,
Recently changed the front and rear discs and pads with genuine brembos from cox motorsport.
Once fitted had the car serviced and fluid changed and bleed at TGM,
I‘ve done around 500-1000 miles since and let them bed in, all appear to be fine and correctly let them bed in, the brakes do feel better but can‘t help thinking they‘re still not quite bitey enough and when they get warm I can feel them fading...
I had stock brakes on my old DC2 and they felt so much better...
Either I‘m expecting too much from stock dc5 disc and pads or is there anything else I could do ?
Is a set of aftermarket front pads going to make much difference in the bite and feel of the pads? The car is fast road use and may do a very occasional light hearted track day but it‘s always been for me a road car and on the B roads they don‘t feel upto standard..I don‘t drive it stupidly hard so expected a little more?
Any comments welcome..
James
