Has anybody had any first hand experience using QFM brake pads? I hear ppl on other forums rave on about them but has anyone had them on their honda? Any info appreciated

A friend of mine sent his mitso backing plates to them and had them bonded up and he raves about them, when im out of pad ill be sending a set there myself to see how they are, apparently they are very quick acting and long lasting with very low dust levels.

So not 1st hand, but heard good things.

Thats great to hear. I have endless ccr in my eg but they so dusty and when they are warmed right up sparks come flying out I think they are eating my oem disc away but boy does it stop.
Im looking for similar performance but minus the dust and sparks...

i use them everyday on customers' cars, they're pretty good, low dust, no noise and braking is good. i've also got them on my car. there's diff grades of pads you can get aswell.

Using QFM race pads atm.

Pretty good. A little noisey and fairly dusty.
I am using them on cross drilled rotors though.

Rather good for the price.

K750.

I paid $395 for ADR approved braided lines + brake pads.
I think the pads worked out to be $200 for a set of 4.

it seems good pads and dust go hand in hand :(

braking requires friction.
friction cause wear.

pad wear or rotor wear? you choose :)

Slotted only will reduce dust levels, but apparently they are very good to your your rotors aswell, opposed to others that use alot more metal and require alot more heat to be effective.

I had QFM Super X's on my KJ Laser years ago. They were cheap, low dust, low fade. There pads I would use again.
