I have fitted 3 sets of the DBA Golds, drilled and grooved and 2 sets cracked on the outside faces around ALL of the holes. They where replaced by DBA at no cost but it shouldnt happen.

Mine where perfect and i never had any problems but 2 sets out of 3 failling wasnt good.

I havent heard of any problems with the Godspeed kit and if i where to change again i wouldnt choose DBA.

Cool Godspeeds

Hi Gunner, my m8 has had a set of DBA and warped them within three weeks, could of been something to do with him not changing pads as well but I have the Godspeed upgrade and can vouch for them.

Ian can be a bit slow getting your stuff to you but they ae a good mod.

AFAIK DBA says that Golds are only for light use so it's normal to crack under heavy braking conditions where they give the 4000 series that can stay longer in track days and abuse.

PS: No personal connection though with DBA and have bought twice 335mm and Red Brembo kit from Godspeed without problems and perfect service!
