Anyone else use Ferodo's Zero and/or Target?

Wondering what their specs are & their ranking on the Ferodo foodchain.

Can't find them on http://www.motospecs.com.au/ferodo.html

For DB1203, Zero is ~$40 at Supercheap.
Target is ~$52 at Repco, they also have Ferodo Excel at ~$65.

Funny how the Zeros don't feature on Ferodo's website... a Supercheap special item? :confused:


On my sedan we installed 1203 Zeros on the front, Bendix Standard 1204 rear yesterday.
Have done about 200kms since then, they're pretty good - nice grab, no squeak
apart from when still bedding in.


This morning I also fitted 1203 Excels front & Bendix Standard 1204 rear on KJ wagon.

Am hoping these Bendix Standard 1204 are less dusty than the factory PBRs... we'll see.
Especially since they're the dinosaur 100% asbestos type!! :P always work great

i tried the ferodo zero ages ago... lots and lots of fade if you drive hard.i only had them on the car for about a week, went and got bendex on and not a problem since. stops fine, no fade, little dust... the occasional squeak, but thats something im willing to live with if its not gonna fade out when i need them.
