Hey guys, 

 

Who can suggest the best value for money Brake pads for an RVR?

 

eBay searches range from $18-$99 per set.

 

And are there any tricks to making the brake pedal less spongy after they're installed?

 

Cheers

Go with a set of Bendix Ultimates or similiar and you will need to bleed your brakes to remove the spongyness.

I use bendix for my dailys, have some mu pads for serious stuff but never used them due to feeling like a tosser changing pads to go racing, lol, Ebc I found too coarse for everyday driving and burnt through the discs (std) in a tad under 2 years, that's when I figured better to chew through pads over discs, got slotted rotors to help eliminate fade and glazing of cheaper pads, and braided lines may help with the sponginess, if ya gunna bleed ya brakes again then maybe flush out the old fluid out

The QFMs that I mentioned dont chew the discs and create fuck all dust..a win win in my mind.
Driven hard too...track and street

Hmmm thanks crew.... Any idea which model/code QFM's fit an RVR? Plenty of options for RVR's on eBay with Bendix, but not for QFM

I have a bad memory but I'm pretty sure db1223 is the evo 1-3 pad?? I'd imagine yours would be the same if it's twin pot, even check the Rvr bendix part # to see if it fits the early evo's
