im driving to cali this summer, and i was thinking about getting the big brake upgrade from fastbrakes.com, but my wallets werent thinkin the same..
so, what are some good high performance brake pads for my 90 crx si? pros and cons? where did you get them from and what price did you get them for? for front and rear?

thanks

 

Project "mew" front pads
from Japan
$80 CAD
pros: stop on a dime
cons: a week of driving turns my wheels flat black whether I like it or not.

 

where did you get them from?

 

anyone tried the EBC green stuff pads? how are they?

 

I really like the Hawk HP Plus. Pretty good wear, excellent grip throughout heat range. Lots of break dust though. Around $60-75 depending on where you buy them.

 

same here.

i don't like EBC green stuff..

 

Green stuff = 35 miles of stopping power.

I've been using Performance Friction Z pads from Autozone on my autocross Neon. $25 and a lifetime warranty Low dust, no noise, and really great stopping power. For cheap *** pads, these are great. Worth trying out for sure.
