Brake pads STOPTECH or Centric

I’ve used that combo on every car I’ve done brakes on and have had no issues. Great stopping power, very quiet, low dust.

Stoptech Sport (aka 309). Quiet on the street and good enough for track days. The only downside is the dust.

I use Stoptech Sport pads + Centric blank rotors with NB brake conversion on my 91 NA. I mostly daily drive my car, but will occasionally take it on mountain runs or the occasional autocross. Haven't experienced any performance issues with them. They're very quiet and perform well under hard braking. Only problem is that these pads put out a *lot* of dust.

I replaced the pads only to reduce brake dust (Centric Posi-Quiet).

Install these. You will be glad you did....reduces brake dust by 90%. No difference in performance. I am 15K miles into mine and love these pads.

I've been on Stoptech 309 pads for all 4 years of my car. Winter, Daily and Track. The pads will fade if you get serious enough. I just changed them to Endless MX72 pads I found a deal on rhdjapan.com. They are better in every way.

My blew through the stock pads AND rotors in 25k.

Put on the StopTech pad rotor/pad kit and the Mountune steel lines.

While this setup had less bite than the stock setup, it was just as powerful and more controllable/progressive.

They also lasted WAY longer than stock, no squeal, and very little brake dust.

I personally find the stock brakes to be too grabby for me to comfortably heel toe. I switched to the Stop tech street pads and loved them.

I run the StopTech "Street" performance pads with EBC slotted rotors and can 100% vouch for each. Outstanding quality and performance. I really push my brakes on occassion and this combo outperformed my expectations which were fairly high to begin with. Bonuses- very low dust and zero noise.

If you are dead set on not getting some Napa golds or whatever grab some Stoptech Steet pads. They are dusty as hell and wear pretty quick not in stop and go city traffic. I live in the sticks so lots of highway and running the stoptech steets on my Gx sedan they dust up bad and I swap them every 35k~. I do have the sport brake kit on it but I don't see the base calipers making much difference on dust and wear.
