Brake pads Brembo or Hawk Performance

I've always had great luck with NAPA HD blanks and Hawk HPS pads. Been my go-to for replacement/upgrade for years.

I have had my set up on for about a month now. Stopping power is significantly better as well as way increased pedal feel. Bite is fantastic just with the Hawk HPS that I run on the street and even better with the DTC-30's that I run on the track.

Brakes.. It's been said, but cost more to replace, are heavier but more powerful, so an advantage from that standpoint.

GermanAutoParts.com has front BREMBO brake pads available for 1986-1989 Scirocco 16V models. Brembo's premium ceramic compound provides increased stopping power and reduced dust combined with quiet, smooth operation. The multi-layer shims minimize noise, vibration and harshness for quiet, smooth performance. Brembo Ceramic pads are an excellent choice if you want to minimize dust and noise while increasing braking performance in general street use.

Hawk HPS for the street. Hawk Blue for the track.

I mentioned it up above but thought I'd expand on my experience with the Hawk HPSs...Car's at 95,000 miles now and I've done 8 trackdays since the car was new...I still have over half the pad left, don't have squealing issues on the street, they work well when cold...Overall, would highly recommend them as a street pad that functions in regular road use, in high performance backroad use, and copes well with track use too.

started w/ oem here, way overcooked them and then changed to hawk hps (no HP+ for the R which was what I liked). Used them last year and cooked the fronts good and used them up, not enough bite for me, but felt a bit better than oem.

From my personal experience with the hawk hps pads, stay away from them. Absolutely garbage past normal operating temperatures. They were however quiet and low dust.
