I got the Bendix 4WD pads off a seller on ebay. Name escapes me but they do heaps of spare parts etc so a search for brake pads will bring them up. They are based in Brissy. Cost me $67 a set posted from memory. I went RDA slotted rotors cause I got some really cheap off a private seller on ebay (fronts $99/pair + 4 diesel filters & 1 oil filter, workshop manual & belts :D ). The rears I got for $219/pair posted again off ebay shop - Ringwood auto parts or user nrap.

hi dan,

the best price i got the 4000 series slotted front rotors and the slotted rear rotors was for $540 ex melbourne plus postage to brissy. I got these of ebay, there ebay user name is gemicam. i suggest you contact him and get a price for a package with everything.Best upgrade i have done so far. I can now lock the 80 up. I also upgraded from the 15 inch brakes to the 16inch brakes when i did this upgrade. if you need any more info pm me.

why go slotted rotors ?

they are none machineable if rotors warp or even if they are good enough to go another set of pads and you wish to get them cleaned up , just a point to note ,not eveyone knows of this

Because slotted are better
If you dont use shiiit pads with them ull get the same if not more life out of slotted

That's only a myth

The only thing you lose with going slotted is if you used to get 100,00ks out of your pad now youll get 80,000 or something like that
But the benefits youll gain will far out weigh that

Its about 2 1/2 hours from the ring road to Albury
If they could be picked up I may have a mate that might be able to bring them back as he goes to Melbourne regularly
