Yeah I have had bendix on mine for a while now and have done many hill cruises (and any qld person will vouch for how I drive
) and surprisingly i have suffered no brake fad what so ever. They are starting to get worn now and I am noticing a little fad but in saying that I have few more killer wasps under the bonnet now.
@ Amacha, why are you needing rotors?
Have they worn down past the min legal requirement or are they just grooved and/or glazed? For about 30-40 bucks you can get them re-surfaced. Just call a mobile guy and they will even come to your house all you have to do is remove the wheel.

Well the rotors havn't been changed since factory and have njsut been machined since....i measured them up and they cant be machined anymore so i think it might be worth it to buy new ones....The front need new rotors but i think the back ones can be machined still..

Give Mike @ WRS a call:
http://www.ftoaustralia.com/modules.php ... ic&t=19716
Tell him you are from FTO Australia & you'll get a 10% discount across the board. They are in QLD but will ship.
They are distributors for DBA, Brembo, AP Racing & Ferrodo.
If I were you, I'd go for a DBA 4000 series front rotors & Ferrodo DS2500 pads. You're gonna need it... especially if your going turbo...
