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.

yeah i meant brakes....at work im tired...
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...
