LF1 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Looks like I need new pads for the front. The car is used for track days and getting to and from them by road. What do people suggest, or do I stick with the OEM? Thanks! Quote Lotus Register - https://www.lotusregister.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Bibs Posted March 13, 2015 Solution Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 I believe they use the OEM on the race cars still so they must be pretty good Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.

LF1 Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 That's lucky as they have just gone back on. Bibs - you seem to be my personal automotive researcher today! Quote Lotus Register - https://www.lotusregister.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arun_D Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Tom, I was pretty happy with how the standard pads fared on Tuesday. I was expecting they would start grumbling towards the end of each session (as I thought I could feel in the wet at Goodwood the other week), but they were fine. Good, as I thought I would need to upgrade to at least Pagid RS14s soon enough (Which I am sure have previously been confirmed on here as standard fit on the Cup???). Going to persevere with these standard pads and let you know how I get on. By the way I thought the LF1 discs are fixed bells, not the floating motorsport parts? Pretty sure that's what I saw on your car. Edited March 13, 2015 by Arun_D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibs Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 I thought the LF1's were all fitted with the floating rotors.

LF1 Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Thought i read somewhere they were floating, did a google before posting, probably wrong though - usually am, they are the same as those on the Cup though. I have found the standard fine, but nothing to compare to. They are lasting a lot better than the Elise, and i am happy with them, just wondered what options I had.
