Brake Pads

[greek_rambos2k]

Hello all,

what brake pads is everyone running? mine are very close to gone so i need to replace. i dont track or anything but i do want hard stopping power for the street in the odd case of i have to slam on the brakes coz some guy cuts me off... or a small child runs on the road...(its happened twice, i wasnt speeding, was going 35 in 50 zone and little girls for no reason runs across the rd)

Thanks

I recently purchased Project Mu club racer pads for my s2000. They do feel like they generate more 'initial bite' than the Endless TR pads I had before. I did also change my discs though from stock to DBA4000's. Less noise than the Endless pads too. I would probably consider them both a bit extreme for daily driving though.

i'd be going for a set of QFM 500 degree pads. they are designed for street/track and im pretty sure you can pick up a set for under $150. i can get a confirmed price for you if you want. pm to let me know

Here's the thing. If with stock pads you can brake hard enough to engage the ABS then you can't get much better.

In hard driving like on the track the pads get hot and lose their effectiveness. There are pads that perform better in a higher heat range but the trade off is they usually perform worse in the lower heat range.

imo - with ALL hondas......

Unless you spend decent time at the track - just stick with OEM pads. Less noise , less dust , dont eat your rotors........on the street it would be impossible to overheat them.
I personally took the ACRE pads that came with my EP3 , and changed back to OEM pads. So much better....so much more feel and confidence.

if your talking about OEM replacement, i would still stick with qfm pads. no noise, no dust, great bite & they are cheap as. retail price is like 80 bucks

well....to be honest yeah why not. OEM is still best - but if its deemed as a "oem replacement". then it can be a close second.
Point is all other performance pads are useless on the street. Noisy , dusty eat rotors and wont heat up to their rated optimum range ever around town.
