Brake pads ENDLESS or Hawk Performance

21K Ferodo DS2500/Hawk HPS - excellent grip

I've owned an 01 225 Coupe for one year this past November. It's an AMU motor code and I love the car still. These are the things I have had to replace so far, not counting upgrades: Brakes & brake fluid & front rotors (Hawk HP, ATE superblue) $350

At Sears Point, braking from 90+ three times per lap (2, 7, 11). Stock GTI vented rotors "work fine" with good fluid and Hawk Blues.

My old one... gotta get a new one... AP Racing 12\" - Hawk HP Plus pads - AP Racing (was vented) rotors

For the back hubs/brakes I'll use assat 16V spindles, diesel passat 10.1 solid rotors, Wilwood Dynalite Calipers, Hawk pads.

I would recommend the TT brakes. Choose plain rotors if you are wary of drilled or slotted rotors, but those brakes with hawk pads (or something more appressive) should be fine. The added lever arm does help substantially, as well as the larger piston over stock.

You will also find the HAWK HPS pads to be nice, however they do get more grabby after a few stops once they get some heat into them being that they are a middle of the road performance street pad. The HPS's will never be as grabby/difficult to modulate as the ultimate ceramics/stock pads though.

I'm running the ECS Stage 2v2 front and 1R rear BBKs, with Hawk HP+ in the front and HPS in the rear. I am running Pentosin Racing brake fluid. I have yet to experience fade on the track running this set-up

Acabei de instalar algumas pastilhas Hawk que não vieram com o sensor e o som de aviso e a luz já estão começando a me deixar um pouco louco.

I decided to go with the Hawk Ceramic pads and I am now regretting it. The pads give off near 0 brake dust but that initial bite the OEM pads had is gone.
