QFM's Performance Street pads fall into two compounds. The first is the HPX pad which is a perfect choice for street cars looking for excellent braking performance whilst retaining all the qualities of a good street pad. The HPX pads are ideal for high performance street cars looking for higher working temperatures with reduced fade, and also for Four Wheel Drives or vehicles looking to enhance their towing capacity or safety.The HPX pads unlike many pads in this performance range are virtually dust free, whilst maintaining low rotor wear.

QFM's second high performance street pad is the A1RM compound and provides QFM with its club sport track pad. It is ideal for high performance street cars that take to the track to test the limits, whilst still being a streetable pad. The A1RM is ideal for club level rally and hill climb where brakes are required right from the first corner!

SPECIFICATIONS
Formulation - Cold Friction - High Friction - Temperature ©
HPX - 0.41 - 0.42 - 0-550
A1RM - 0.40 - 0.48 - 0-780

Feedback even money couldn't buy!!!

Well I've just got back from Oz where I spent 2000km's driving on a new set of A1RM pads from gslrallysport.

These are an excellent road-track day pad and a good compromise for those that want one pad to everything!!! Much cheaper then Endless, ProjectMu, SBS, Ferodo etc and as good or better...

IMHO these are excellent, very cheap (mine were about $120 for the fronts IIRC) and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

If you want a new set of sport pads then these are the pad to get...

Awesome pads, i use them on all my cars.

Most memorable experience with them was with my S2 RX7 that I had a few years ago. I used to be very hard on braking to the point where I was going through a set of Bendix pads every 3-4 weeks and I always has excess brake dust. Not with QFM, and they lasted at least 8-10 weeks which was awesome...

Flogged the absolute **** out of them last night.

Pulled up beautifully everytime, no real noticeable fade!

All in all, 1700kg of Legnum is no match for this farkers!

*** HALF PRICE REARS DEAL FINISHES AT THE END OF MARCH!!! ***

Get in now to take advantage of the last week of our half price rears deal!

- Front and rear HPX $131 delivered!
- Front and rear A1RM $191 delivered!
- Front A1RM and rear HPX $171 delivered!

List price on the HPX is $99, (but our regular sale price is $79), and list price on the A1RM is $149, (but our regular sale price is $119). So order now to take advantage of the half price rears deal on what was already undoubtedly the best value brake pads around!!!

Starting 1st of April, we still still be selling HPX and A1RM at the discounted $79 and $119, and offering free shipping on front and rear when purchased together, but there will be no more half price rears deal...

Even if we haven't got the pads in stock, pads which are ordered and paid for by the end of March will still get the half price rears deal, regardless of expected delivery time!

Any questions or dramas, just let me know, or give us a bell on 1300 884 836!

Regards,
Greg

* All prices quoted are for QFM's standard pad range. Custom order pads that we do, such as Brembo, HSV AP etc. Have their own pricing structure, contact us for details!

Usually would have hundreds of them, but unfortunately QFM have just in the last month or two gone on a massive back order, and stuff which we would usually have ridiculous amounts of are currently out of stock, unfortunately the HPX to suit S14 (DB1170) is one of them.

If you don't need pads super desperately PM me your details (either phone or email) and I can let you know when we've got more stock.

Regards,
Greg

Hi mate,

Front and rear HPX is $158 delivered, or $238 in A1RM. As with the S14 pads above, the fronts are on back order, but the rears are on the shelf in both compounds. If you don't need pads super desperately PM me your details (either phone or email) and I can let you know when we've got more stock.

More news just in!!!

Just a quick update. Went to Winton over the long weekend with a set of QFM A1RM's which performed outstandingly. The GTiR has very average brakes to begin with which normally fit inside a 14" rim. But the pads (with std rotors) performed extremely well with no fade. Was literlly off my seat slightly standing on the brakes at the end of the straight.

Hi mate,

Unfortunately the half price rears deal ended at the end of March, so for a full set of HPX for an S15 front and rear, you'd be looking at $158 delivered (free shipping). List price on the HPX is $99 per set.

Regards,
Greg

Clint,

Noise is a pretty unusual for the A1RM, what have you tried to do to fix it? Were the pads installed with the OEM shims or not?

Noise has got absolutely nothing to do with pad material, it's harmonics between the backing plates and the caliper itself, so changing the actual pad compound very rarely fixed squeal unless it's a very low speed grinding noise that some high metal pads can produce, but the A1RM isn't one of them.

Regards,
Greg

Greg,
just curious as to how much longer i will get my A1RM's for my S14, i ordered them some time ago now. Just need to know as my current pads are getting really really low now and don't want to buy more for the sake of a week or 2.
I am really looking forward to trying these pads out so adds to the anticipation.
Cheers
Tony

Pads arrived today finaly, due to the back order. Fitted the fronts today with slotted rotors, will put rears in tomorrow and give them a real test soon. Fronts seem to have more initial bite over standard cold, will love to see what these are like with some temp in them :D

Installed my front pads last week (A1RM) with DBA4000 rotors and so far Im very pleased. Initial bite is very good and they seem to pull the car up very quickly. So far much better than my old RB74s. Yet to give them a good go, as they lock up my fronts to easily.

Thanks Greg.

Front and rear HPX would be $158 delivered. Got the rears in stock, but unfortunately the fronts are currently on a manufacturing back order, should be a couple of weeks at most.
