same, i need to get new brake pads for my dc2r too. i hear project mu and endless brake pads are pretty good for daily or race. (correct me if i'm wrong)
sweet...
do you know where i can get the ss-m and rough price guide?
how would the cc-x hold up on oem rotors?
thanks
Ben from Touge Tune gets me the Endless pads. Cheaper than majority of places out there. If you are actually serious about them. PM me, and i'll get you a price. I forgot how much I bought mine for.
I only use Endless pads, and swear by them. Much better than Project Mu and all that. Dixcel pads are very good also. I can do you a better price on the Dixcel's. Dixcel bought out AP racing, so the pads are effectively AP racing pads .
Ummm CC-X aren't a good match up on OEM rotors. They are very abrasive. They heat the rotor alot, and MUNCH it. I wouldn't use a Carbon Ceramic pad on a steel rotor, but that's me - I just don't like the feel.
SSS is my choice for the budget conscious..
Had no problem with them on trackdays too.. My wheels would lock up every now and then even with semi-slicks, albeit rather old and hard semi-slicks
i had a set of SSS in my car and didnt really like them, i could get them to fade in the touge and just didnt have much initial bite but the on brake control was quite nice.
im now using ProjectMu LevelMax 500 and they have much better bite and better control.
Yeah it's true the SSS's can fade a little. Use a good brake fluid and you'll be fine. They are street pads. I don't like Project Mu pads, god damn noisey!! Endless have the best control IMO. AP are also very good.. .but so freaking Exxy! That's why Dixcel is good. Cheap price... same quality as AP Racing.
