You know what, I have not posted for years after selling my Falcon but google led me back to this old thread 8 years later.

I believe this thread needs an update as I still have this problem with T3's.
BTW, I have never actually bothered following up with DBA about this.

This time on a 2009 Mazda MX-5 with DBA 4000 T3 rotors.
This time with Winmax W3 pads.

Same buzzing, same transfer layer issues as the Carbotechs from 8 years ago.

Sorry to say it but I have avoided DBA T3 rotors like the plague since my last experience and only am suffering again because this car came with the rotors when I bought it last year.

I have found some pads work well with the T3's but are generally the more abrasive type Carbon Metallic pads. OEM pads tend to work as well.
It always seems to be pads that need a transfer layer that have issues with the T3 slot design.


I have actually been running DBA 4000 (DBA HD) Plain rotors on the other 2004 MX-5 ever since with no problems for track use with various different pads.


Very curious if others have experienced this issue since this was first raised.
