DBA rotors
Hey any of you Aussies know weather DBA make a rotor to fit our cars? Or a good slotted crossed drilled rotor for use with as tandard calliper? Also can anyone recommend a good pad for spirited road use that doesnt dust out the wheel all the time?

GT40 wasted by ambulance
Check out this new GT40 that was totaled by a speeding ambulance as the chap was pulling out of his driveway. Those Auckland drivers....?
Stoped
