    Default KE70/AE71 Gridlock brake upgrade(kinda)?

    So, having issues trying to lock 155/80r13 (STFU) with the standard ae71 front gridlock setup with minimal success.

    Anyways, looking at getting that new Solid slotted/dimpled RDA disk ($150 off ebay) and a new set of QFM ARM or RB74 pads (surprisingly easier to source performance pads for the gridlock callipers), anyone used them?

    Have run ae86 gear which worked a lot better, but want to run the stock shiz for now

    I run RDA's and QFM A1RM, great affordable setup! Never had a drama or heard of one, though they're a little noisy when cold.

    I've heard those brembo caliper covers work well.
