Hey what are you higher horspower guys doing for brakes on the street? My civic was pretty pooful even with HTC40 race pads after a couple stops from 130-60.

My Integras getting Type r brakes over the summer and Im thinking EBC yellows.

 

i was using on the front only hawk HP+ and they were awesome on 120-30 stops...never used the abs even on wet rainy days... on a hard stop..

 

Cobalt GT-sports are really good, but on the edge of streetable. They have considerably more bite than Hawk HPS's or Axxis Ultimates once they warm up. They also have a high metal content, put off a lot of dust, and eat the rotors pretty quickly.

I had to take them off because the brake dust was caking onto the rims and rusting, and I was going through rotors every 6 months.

 

I used to have the Hawk HP+ but i went through them FAST..they worked very well tho... Ive got the Hawk HPS now and they are 1 step below and work almost as good

 

i drove my friends integra with hawk hps and mines with hp+ and it was nite n day...

 

Yeah its different.. but for a street car and the price of the HP+ and how fast you go through them imo its not worth it

 

axxis ult here have about 20k on them in in a 2700lbs+ 98ex 500hp+ street car with PLENTY brake boosting and PLENTYof 150-60 stops and they still grab like day one i don see to much dust and there quiet for the most part and dont tare up the rotors
iv ran a lot of pads and there are by far the bust all around iv hade

 

Same here, I've been using Axxis Ult's for years, no problems whatsoever. I've used them on my ITR, GSR, DB8, EM1, DC4, practically every car I've worked on use Axxis Ult's. I love them, best bang for the buck and they perform better than Hawks and Project Mu's to me. They also cost way less. For those who don't know, PBR and Axxis = same company. PBR tends to be cheaper for some reason, at approximately $80 for a full set (front and rear) of performance pads, that's a hell of a deal to me. Just my $0.02.

 

I bought some Hawk HPS pads from Customcarscentral.com. They had the lowest prices on the internet and I had them in one business day. Havent used them yet but i made several 125-130 passes at the track on stock eg brakes and rotors. Not to mention alot of brake boosting on the weekends. The HPS's should be sufficient. I have only heard good things about them and alot of my friend run them on their street cars/autox cars.

 

+3 on Axxis Ultimates. It's really a great cold bite pad and you won't get it to fade just by stepping on them to slow down from high speed runs. It's a very under rated pad.

 

I say use DURALAST gold lifetime warranty lmao...

 

HP+ on stock civic brakes in front and si rears the car was easier to stop from 130+ than my Type R was.
