    Currently having 60,000km service. Advised front pads have about 4000km left to run and front rotors have a lip but won't need machining yet.

    @KMH001 - MAL, how have you found the Hawk pads. Which ones are they - the HPS or the HP Performance (track) ones?

    Further to the foregoing, when I picked up my car from service I sought and obtained a quote of $420.75 for replacement front pads only, or $935.00 for new pads plus new OEM discs fitted, which makes the cost of the discs nominally $515 (I say nominally as this includes fitting the whole lot). The Hawk pads sold by MPSG are $170.00.

    As my discs have quite a pronounced lip on them now and will skim to under-size, it might make sense to fit new discs plus the Hawk pads, for a total of around nominally $685. I could be tempted to replace all with a full Brembo discs + pads but at $2K+ plus fitting I'm not sure I need the pain at this stage.

    changed my rotors at 32000k, gen 1 mps3. Had about 0.7mm left apparently which is still enough. However was putting new pads on so just changed the lot.

    think i got (front only) DBA slotted + HPX pads from GSL for under $500, just a word of warning, rotors are f*cking heavy
