Hey guys thank you so much for your quick delivery, i recieved my DBA 4000 front rotors and DS performance pads on thursday. Going to install them during the week, but just want to run this bed in process past you.
Going to install the rotors and do this which i pulled off another forum:
All Cast Iron Disc rotors require bedding in to ensure heat stabilisation and to increase resistance to cracking. Cracks can occur during the first few heavy stops if bedding is not carried out.
This is a Standard proceedure for rotors with Thermo Graphic paint applied.
* Use previously bedded pads
* For a minimum of 15 km use brakes gently at first from initially low speeds ( 60 km/h ) Progressively raise speed ( 80 to 100 km/h ) but still using gentle braking applications. This raises the rotor temperature gradually.
* For the final 2 or 3 applications brakes can be used quite hard but not enough to engage ABS or wheel lock up.
* Drive for a minimum of 15 km at low speed with minimum braking to allow the rotors to cool.
The Green (458 deg C )heat paint should have fully turned white and possibly the Orange( 550 deg C )paint turned yellow on the outside edges of the rotors when bedded correctly.
After this i will be installing the pads but i'm unsure about the correct bed in procedure for new pads. What process would you recommend because everyone has a different opinion and i don't want to make a mistake.
