Brake pads Ferodo or Hawk Performance

Hawk DTC 50 or 60 on front, DTC 10 on rear. Squeals for sure! Works great with cheap stock rotors and toyo RA-1 or RR... Its my daily (300k km) and now backup track car when weather is iffy

If you want a bit more performance without loosing cold braking, use ferodo ds performance, they're amazing price-quality wise.

I have these, like others have said you can just get stock 33 GTR pads and rotors off of z1 if your in the states. I recommend if it’s in your budget DB5000(front)3000?(I think for rear) and some hawk ceramics,braided lines. It’s a huge difference from stock by upgrading whole system and depending on how much you drive it will last forever. I’m on like year 6 since upgrades and and the pads and hats are still in great shape

I went with DBA T2 rotors with Hawk Ceramics. This was my first time trying hawk and I will never switch unless necessary. These have been by far the cleanest brake pads I've ever run. I've tried most other popular name brands and even off brand stuff.

Ferodo DS2500 paired with Zimmerman blank rotors and Motul RBF600 is what I use. The tracks I go to are more technical and not fast so it's great for my use case. I imagine if I went to a track where speeds are above 150Km/H and have long, fast corners, I would need better pads. I'm considered intermediate to advanced and last ran a 1:47 at CTMP DDT with worn Vitour Tempesta Enzo tires. I think I can run low 40s this year. I would not track with stock pads. I overheated my pads and brake fade hit hard. The pads melted and I went off the track and almost over the hill at TMP (Cayuga).

I use Hawk 5.0 pads front and rear for autocross. if you want a more aggressive pad that's still street-able, I'd recommend those.

I used DS2500 for my first 2 track days but outgrew them rather quickly on a 2800 lb car. Last time I swapped to DS1.11 and felt much more confident braking deeper into corners with zero fade at my intermediate level. Now I just use DS2500 for the street and canyons.

I ran HP+ pads and nearly ruined some STI Rays wheels I ordered from Japan. The key to cleaning the dust off is using a cleaner that has an iron remover. Sonax makes a good one. Meguiar's all wheel cleaner also works OK. I had to treat each wheel about 5x with a soft bristle brush and still ended up using a blue Scotch Brite to get the hard deposits of dust. I ended up removing some paint in some indescreet locations. I was super bummed. I no longer run these pads and run ceramics for the street. I plan to run more aggressive pads when needed, but haven't picked anything yet. The HP+ are great. The modulation is amazing. The bite, even when cold, is awesome. But there's a major trade off.

Ferodo Ds2500 as brake pads or Ebc Yellostuff (a tad cheaper). Avoid drilled or grooved rotors because kinda useless. Just a good oem equivalent like Brembo (if in you market have CTF go for it)

I changed out the oem and ran Hawks for a while, braking distance wan't much difference but the brake dust was terrible, Rims where dirty all of the time.
