Personally I think it should cool the caliper rather than the disc but that's just my POV.</p><p></p><p>Brake pads still do "produce" gases, when pads are heated beyond their operating temperature the bonding agents of the pads start to "evaporate" which produces a layer of "gas" between the pad and disc. It's just a matter of the quality of the bonding agent and the temperature resistance of the brake material. I doubt they still use asbestos in this day and age. But like you said - the best way to avoid brake fade is to get better pads. High temp pads however probably wouldn't be good daily pads. Last time I tried high temp I couldn't brake when it was cold. <strong>zero</strong> brakes when cold. That was insanely scary.</p><p></p><p>And you're right about the cross drill cracking. You've probably seen your fair share of cracked discs. I guess it depends on application. If you're driving a humble 1.5L Wira you'll never see cracks if the discs were cast molded from the factory with drilled holes? I only have a peeve with those DIYers who go and drill their own holes in their solid rotors. If it wasn't designed for that purpose why do people do it? Anyway, I didn't say the holes suck in air la. I said they help dissipate those gases mah.</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p>They also have top notch prices</p></blockquote><p></p>
