What I did notice is that the brakes performed better when doing repeated stops which is related to their heat dissispation.

Pros: better performance, repeated stops

The most economical upgrade for street use is just beefy pads. Try Ferodo DS2500 on the front axle with your OEM 11.3" rotors combined with Hawk HPS on the rears.

Pros: economical upgrade, beefy pads

I liked the ferodo street pad a lot. I got mine used from potterman when I bought the brakes from his one lap car. They had great initial bite and did farely well on track. They would start to get overworked towards the end of a session but they are street pads. They dust a lot just like the 2500s.

Pros: great initial bite, farely well
Cons: get overworked, dust a lot

I run audio TT front rotors (12.3 instead of 11.3), aggressive pads (ferodo DS2500) and racing brake fluid (motul rbf 600) and even on the track where you have to do some high speed stops (125-45) I havent really seen much brake fade.

Pros: little brake fade

I'm running OEM rotors and calipers with Ferodo DS2500 frt/Hawk HPS rear and ATE superblue fluid. The brakes held up great. But then coming out of Turn 2, I accelerate to about 90 before hitting the brakes again going on a steeper downhill to slow to about 30mph. This is where I feel a touch of fade.

Pros: brakes held up great
Cons: touch of fade

If you adjust the regulator spring too tight, or you lower the car without releasing the additional tension that put on the regulator spring, the rear wheels will lock up. If you have it adjusted really close to the limit for your rear wheels (for optimum braking) and you upgrade the rear pads to Ferodo DS2500 and keep the Mintex Red Box pads on the front axle, you might also get rear wheel lockup because the total braking force at the rear wheels increases by 50% or so with that pad upgrade, and the front doesn't get a similar increase in grip.

Pros: increased braking force
Cons: rear wheel lockup
