Good DD Upgraded Brake Pad

[SR20S13]

Whats a nice DD upgrade brake pad
i've got a 94 civic LX, just got new rotors, and looking up upgrade my breaking power a little bit

EBC Green Stuff?
Hawk HPS?

and is there any like more powerfull shoes for my rear drums out there?

[lastresort576]

i say hawk hp+

also, ATE is now making pads and rotors.(i think they are a new thing..) and thats the co. that makes very good brake fluid. somethign to look into.

[SR20S13]

well i've already got some advance auto rotors because blanks are the best, there cheap, and a 2 year warrenty haha

I've always liked PBR Metal Masters, there are performance shoes out there but I don't remember who makes them A quick search and you should be able to find them though.

Adaptive one brake pads. Worth every penny. I will buy them again and again. I live in MN, never squeeked in the cold. Always stop me right now.

I ran HPS followed by HP+, and the dusting and squealing with HP+ gets a little annoying for a DD. HPS is good compromise, still offering outstanding performance for weekend race events.

EBC! I have EBC pads on my EBC CD/S brake rotors.

i got some for sale in my for sale thread if you wanne buy some

EBC = Junk, period, game over.

EBC Greenstuff dusted and wore really fast when I had them, they stopped amazingly, but for the price of them, they were gone way too fast to be worth the price.

im happy with my EBC brakes & pads. i have yet to have a problem with them

personally, hawk hps pads and brembo slotted rotors. iirc, it comes out like $10-20 more then stock pads and blanks. <- sorry i don't remember. i have been running the same set-up for brakes for the last 3 years. yeah, still have 1/2 the pad left. :TU:

o also forgot to mention, i believe they're a lil pricey but look into Carbotech ive heard great reviews from some road racers.

atm ive got the HP+ pads, and i havent noticed any squeling at all, they also went on freshly turned blank brembo's, did you brake em in corectly? i would relate the squeling to a glazing of the pad. as for the dust, i really dont have anything to compare em to.

X2

Hawk HPS
Cobalt GT-Sport
Axxiss Ultimates

All good compounds for the front.

FOr the rear contact Porterfield, ask for their R4S compound for the rear shoes.

I have a set of their rotors that i just put on my car. so far so good, but once auto-x starts up i will let you know how they feel. I also have satisfied brake pads, they are just their OEM pads, but they stop real good.

Just say no to EBC Green or Reds.

Watch a GSR at Mid Ohio go thru a set of Greens in two 30 minute sessions, the Reds lasted 3 sessions.

Raybestos top of the line would last 3-4 weekends :)

Raybestos...I think I have some carnage from those on my right front rotor. (Unless my caliper seized up) Pics next week when I get the replacements.

i have the hawk hps pads in the front, and i can't complain. work better than the napa ones i used to have

[brother dad]

I have axxis ultimates with a fastbrakes front 11" set up on the front and a DA teggy rear swap stops like a biotch but these are the most dusty pads ever wash the car and 2 days later the wheels are filthy and not in the new cool way
