I changed my rotors due to grooving in my last set, now my new ones started grooving again and I sanded the hubs down and cleaned them up real good and changed the pads and still the same, anyone got any info on my issue? >:(

More info needed i think

What Rotors( i am guessing New)

What Pads(again new)

Grooving wont make much difference

Unless you mean Warping (ie can feel it thru the pedal while braking)

sorry guys for the late reply was a bizi weekend, yeah I havnt been on gravel roads I live in the city and they were new pads, my guess is they are shit pads but I didnt know it would have that effect anyways could there be any other reason for the grooving like anything to do with the calipre.

nope grooves like that can only be caused by crap pads,soft rotors or stones in your pads....

I would get them re machined/replaced with a Brand name rotor,new GOOD pads ( i prefer bendix) and go from there,make sure the calipers are sliding as they should.

I know what I would do,I would fit a set of DBA Kangaroo Paw rotors and a set of Bendix Ultimate pads all round....

Basic from Repco or BNT does it for me...

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
