    umm, they were about 320ish (But that includes airbagging them over, if you can wait two weeks they are then free into store and cost about 300ish). (This was from RDA brakes in Welshpool, Service there is awesome)

    Perth Brake Parts can get you a custom cut pad (using Ferodo DS2500 material) but that costs $355.50, can be done for next day delivery though. Service there not so great with regards to returning calls.

    I can't wait to get skyline calipers on the supra too, OMG they have way better range of pads for a lot cheaper as well!

    Nah man not trade, that is ordinary Joe Blo (i.e. me) price. (RDA aren't exactly a retail shop, but will do it) and yes that is for the front pads. They come with anti rattle shims also.

    I've read all the reviews, now I can't wait to test em out! (Although I didn't think noise was an issue with them??)

    Just to sound hardcore (NOT) got quoted $216 for superlows for the aurion, Missus is getting them as a xmas pressie for me. will be interested to see how the huge red biatch (Aurion not missus) handles with a better set of springs on it. Also in the pipeline, Speccy headlight lamps, Cat back exhaust (Aurions sound mad with exhausts) a Different grill from thailand, 4 point brace for under the car at front, Sway bar for rear and tower brace for front, slotted rotors and endless pads, and a CAI. Not many modded aurions about should be a nice looking car dropped on its ass its a long list but should look & sound alright.

    nobody checks your car at first.. as long as it looks and goes ok you should be right...

    what you need:

    CAMS speed 2 license (available on the day ~$150), WASCC membership (day pass available on the day~ $30)

    long sleeve shirt, helmet, long pants, covered shoes..plenty of water... you dehydrate fast.

    what your car needs:

    decent cooling system, decent brakes, plenty of fuel...

    i used 3/4 of a tank... (55L) in about 20-25 laps + drive from Wannaroo to the track and back

    i also overheated about 6 times and killed my brakes after only a few laps... multiple 200+ braking points with little room to let em cool kills brakes quickly..

    last time it was a spur of the moment decision to go to wannaz, i was just gonna watch... this time my car will be a little more prepped..

    Rudi- you should come for sure man... the more the merrier..

    I have a big problem :S

    My current buddyclub rims have awesome rear tyres and front ones with flat spots :O.
    I have two other rims that will fit the rear (ROH) but they have NO grip in the wet (diamondback crappy tyres) and I cant afford new ones.

    So am I gonna get kicked out for 0% grip in the wet?

    no, as long as you try to control your car and not slide it on purpose you'll be fine.. Remember, you slide off onto the grass, you can get kicked out..

    How bad are the flat spots? Can you whack them on the back and do some burnouts???
