Default DC5 Brake Pads & Fluid Setups

Im currently searching for brake pads & fluid for this summer for some tracking events...

DC2#428 recommended Motul RBF fluid, Ferodo and Pagid pads to me in another thread..

did a bit of searching and found that the Ferodo DS3000 are pretty good
also found out about Cobalt GT-R spec too but not sure if its available for the DC5 or not

also, how about Hawk HP+ and Axxis Ultimates?

So what setup/combo is everybody running? any input would be appreciated

Im trying Galfer pads for track...supposedly better than the Ferodo DS3000....I'll let you know how they go. However I do have a AP 4 pot brake kit, 330mm slotted rotors etc etc so I guess if your comparing with just stock brake system then my opinion wouldnt really be accurate

I'll let you know nonetheless

that would great!!!
I guess if you comparing the DS3000 and Galfer both on your 4pot setup, that should still be a good comparison of the two pads
yeah, I would like a set of aggressive pads for the track since I'll use the stocks for daily driving

so what fluid are you running?
