Racer Products proudly offers DBA

Racer Products announces they are a DBA Direct New Zealand distributor for DBA — Disc Brakes Australia.

With its unparalleled technical expertise, Disc Brakes Australia (DBA) not only engineers and manufactures the most comprehensive program of disc rotors and drums, but offers a complete range of brake pads and shoes, callipers, brake fluids, sensors and other ancillary items.

Racer Products, New Zealand’s premier motorsport and karting goods supplier, offering quality performance products from the world’s leading motorsport brands, has become a direct distributor for DBA.

The crew at Racer Products has been very excited about the arrangement and it seems their customers have too, as they have been ordering parts before an official announcement has been made. It is easy to see why.

DBA’s product range covers a huge range of the Australasian car parc, with direct replacement disc rotors and pads applications catering for street vehicles, performance upgrades, towing, 4×4/SUV, track, motorsport and even military/armoured vehicles applications.

There are three main types of brake systems available across the performance, direct replacement, and 4WD sectors.

Performance

DBA performance products offer the simplest and most cost effective brake upgrade with no modifications required to your vehicle. Perfect for those looking to make their vehicle track day capable.

Direct Replacement

The Street Series product range is aimed at the OE-replacement market and was developed with three objectives in mind: offer a product that performs better than OE, is competitively priced and offers market leading vehicle coverage. Street Series products restore vital braking system performance levels in passenger cars, SUVs and Light Commercial Vehicles.

4WD

Have you increased your 4wd’s gross vehicle mass (GVM) or tuned your engine for better fuel efficiency and towing power? If so, it is important you consider how this extra weight and power can affect your braking system and stopping distance. DBA can help you explore their off-road performance products to find the right brake solution for your 4wd.

Pads

After leading the market for decades, DBA’s performance brake rotors complained they’d done enough of the heavy lifting, and frankly they have had their time to shine! So DBA’s R&D team decided to give them some friends by their side, and something to share the limelight with — a range of complementing performance brake pads. Now the two are best mates, offering customers the perfect brake upgrade for any vehicle application.

While DBA has firm Australian roots, the company has grown over time into a truly global player, servicing the world through eight distribution centres across Australia, New Zealand and the USA, distributors on all continents, and exporting to over 30 countries.

For New Zealand customers the ordering process is simple. Visit dba.com.au/au-part-finder/ where you can enter either the Rego, VIN, Make/Model of the specific vehicle you are servicing and the parts finder will serve up the entire list of available parts. Otherwise, you can either enter a DBA part number and the site will give you all the information needed or you can cross reference.
