Bendix Metal King Gold

[xtremeleo]

even a lousy brake pad can slow down from 180km/h. just a matter of the distance. try out ferodo and then compare. :_:
u'll understand when u're hitting 180km/h and out of a sudden someone swerve into your lane with 80km/h.

yes, but i was not talking slowing down, slowly. BENDIX does bite hard, believe me. i'll try to source out ferodo out if i can get a set, thanx for the suggestion bro :)

wah bro, DS pads so expensive?? hmm, like this i guess the rm150 one is the Premier one i think. but its good enuff ler, he even went for SSO last sat with it. then just found out another fren driving SEG also using ferodo, also good comment from him. i think i'll try it. xtremeleo, if u manage to source for the ferodo pads at an impressive price, hope u can share it with us here :)

yep im not saying bendix doesnt bite good. im using them on my twin pot right now. but ferodo bite is simply better. :_:

wah... kinda pricey for brake pads. I'm using AFI 500 degrees at RM75 on my stock satria 1.6L. hehehe It bites hard enough for me. Any better pads, my tyres will be sliding on the road. hehe

I'm now on Bendix.. one thing i like bendix is because it doesn't require warming up to start biting but sure, more heat is more bite until later it is too hot and started to fade.. my previous pad is Magnum (dont know u guys ever heard b4 o not), need to be heated up before can feel any bite, its like almost no brake when it is cool..

but now after more than six month i do feel that i need to press harder to get it to bite hard, probly the rumours are true after all.. will try to get Ferodo next time..

 

[xtremeleo]

do u have to brake dat hard bro, mine is still biting hard even after years of usage. both for the front and rear. maybe u shud try ferodo, like maverick suggested

 

[TODA]

Ive used Metal King b4, all-round..............

my exp, tried going down Genting full throttle then brake hard(really hard) till I feel the rear is lifting then turn in-out fulll throttle hows it? crisp-n-good-feel.....went BT3 last time w it as well, late braking but nvr fade

bites hard, nvr exp fade or fail b4 but then, my front discs gone in 2 yrs


So can u guys recommend me a reasonable alternative? is Ferodo tat good? if yes, which range, wat price?

 

[xtremeleo]

discs gone in 2 years? wit braking style like dat? i'll say it was worth it bro :)

i've been using metal king for years, and tried ferodo too. yes ferodo is a bit better, hardly any fade at all in sepang trackday. and less vibration during hard braking compared to metal king. but i forgot which model of ferodo i used. it was more than 2 years ago...

now using project mju disc+project mju pads, even better hehe
