Brake dusters

Got dust?

A few weeks ago I slipped a set of Bob Ds' drilled Brembos on my '88 5ktq along
with a most unlikley set of pads.  Lucas.  One of my suppliers is a big dealer
of all Lucas parts.  A huge range anyway, not just electrical stuff that can't
work.

So they are semi metallic pads and I tried them 'cause my other pads, stock I
believe were dirty as hell, and the Lucas were cheap to me.

They work really well.  As good as stock and are more or less dustless.  I
haven't cleaned the wheels in weeks and they are no dustier than the rears, ie:
clean.

I just looked in the book, a 1995 book.  They have listings up to '94 S4s.  They
have listings for cars that should have UFO brakes, 90-91 V8s and '91 200Q.  No
A4 listing yet but I bet it isn't a new type pad.

If someone with a UFO pad could trace it with measurements and fax it to me I
can try for a match just to be sure.  Same for an A4 pad though I bet they are
the same as an A6
