How are the Raybestos ST-43 on the the rotor wear?
Do you guys run them on the street or swap them just for the track? If you swap, what do you run on the street? |

I run PowerStop Z26's on the street and they're acceptable as such. You have to very thoroughly wash the rotors between pad swaps to ensure a good transfer layer while re-bedding.

Our Porterfield R4-S has done really well when swapping back and forth. |

I used to use a fine-grit sandpaper, but was told that was bad.

Anybody ever find the OEM parts number for the front and back brake pads?

Is this the same procedure you use when swapping between compounds on the same rotor?

A few weeks ago I ran some G-Loc R10's up front and R8's in the back at Chuckwalla, and it was perfect. Combined with Castrol SRF fluid I had 0 brake fade, I got some good pad transfer to the rotors, and the pads and rotors looked great afterwords. Highly recommended.

Carbotech, Hawk, Raybestos all have the same recommendation. For example... http://www.ctbrakes.com/faqs.asp#bedding5 If rotors were previously bedded using a different manufacturer’s brake pads; then it is strongly recommended that the used discs (rotors) be reconditioned/turned and meet minimum specification requirements. I was just asking if you had discovered a different method of removing glazed pad material.

If you run a track pad on the street, my experience is that in ˜100 miles the pad would have cleaned up the old pad material very efficiently. They go out and rebed the new pad just prior to the track event and you are all set.
I hear what all the manufacturers recommend, but really I never found that cleaning up the old pad material to be an issue. |
