Angry GOD Speed Brembo's

I bout these Brembo's a while back, and me and anyone who drove my car always thought the braking is really poor...

They came with DS2000 pads, and originally i thought maybe its the pads...

Just checked my brakes today and on one caliper the pads are completly worn, and on the other caliper the pads are half worn.

Anyone here got any thoughts on what it maybe before i take this up with Godspeed?

Thanks
Sam

Sounds like the system isn't bled properly , did you get any pulling to one side when braking ? if the calipers are fitted properly they should work very well

Am actually speaking to Ian about this too...very helpfull...

Yes the car does pull to one side when breaking, though i put this down to my tracking being out alongside my Cambers and bald tyres... though i am at Elite tommrow having my new tyres put on along side the tracking and camber done...

They said they can check the brakes for me, though feel that it may be the braided hose's.

I am sometimes also getting a crunching noise when i break which i can hear when stationary, though this maybe due to the clip that hold the hose on to the shocjk which has fallen out.

I got the Godspeed Brembos (same pads as you) with the 308mm grooved discs and got them fitted at Elite's. For the bedding in period i'd thought 'what have i gone and done' these are crap they can get that much better after they are bedded in, but they did and are actually very, very good. Who fitted them for you mate? It is very important that the system is bled and allowed to settle, could be they rushed it?
