Brake pads ATE or Hawk Performance

Hawk Performance Brake pads

I currently use Hawk DTC60’s on my Scion FRS with Motul RBF600 fluid for track days. The brakes feel great to me, I like the bite, and they don’t fade even on multi day events.

Pros: great feel, good bite, no fade
Cons: expensive

Just switched to dba t2 w Hawk ceramics (combo set from new provisions racing) w factory calipers and lines.

I’d been considering brembo swap, but money had to be reallocated, so I abandoned full upgrade dreams. Old rotors were warped and pads were a dusty mess, so pretty much anything was an improvement.

Hawks are quiet, super-smooth/consistent engagement when I step on pedal, and minimal dust. Definitely happy w decision.

Pros: quiet, smooth engagement, minimal dust

ATE Brake pads

Even the parts prices are on a different level, ie brake pads with a Volvo logo on them - 160€, with ATE (they allegedly produce the original pads too) logo - 60€...

Pros: lower price, same quality
Cons: Volvo logo price high

Had one in 2012. A cba 2009. Blew transmission. Covered under warranty. They put in a DBA transmission and bellhousing. Had full bolt ons and the car was fun. Ran mid 10\u2019s at over 130 mph. Stock brakes sucked. I upgraded to J hook rotors and I think hawk pads.

Pros: fun, ran mid 10s
Cons: stock brakes sucked
Vehicle: Nissan
