I have a new and still boxed front pad set for the 6 Pot AP Upgrade Caliper as used on E36/46 M3/CSL

DS3000 is Ferodo's premium racing compound and has set the standard across circuit racing and the World Rally Championship. DS3000 has contributed to countless wins and podium positions in the WRC, BTCC, STW and is now experiencing major success in Indycar and NASCAR applications.

The main characteristics of the DS3000 compound are:

* reduced bedding in time (approximately 50% quicker than other materials)
* extremely high friction level (0,62 coefficient of friction) at any temperature or speed
* higher initial bite
* predictability, in all conditions, when braking into the corner because of the flat friction curve
* less off brake between the brake pedal and throttle

When using this material with light inertia racing cars, as a general rule, it is necessary to apply less brake pedal pressure than you would normally expect. This will avoid over-braking and the generation of excessive heat in the braking system and discs.
