And cool, I looked on the calendar for June: Nelson Ledges Road Course Racing Events

It says SR 20 National Convention Day. I bet they think the SR and 20 are supposed to be separate. lol

I don't like them period, but I'm kind of a snob. We used them on the Subaru RS I campaigned in DSP one year. They were ok, but not something I would buy again. You can use them, but for my money, there are much better choices.

Okay, so my next question is: recommend me a pad. I'm just an NA 92 SE-R VE swap. But it's a light car, down to 2100lbs ish when interior removed w/o me in it. I already have the NX brake upgrade in the front.

She's getting ready

Porterfield, I have not heard of those, I'll do some research. Thanks dude.

P.S. I'll also be replacing my rear rotors with OEM's (they just are looking thin and need to anyway) - any pad I should bother with for the rear while I have the calipers off anyway? Or should I stick with OEM. They have plenty of life left

XP10's are too much for a street tire. I loved the AX6's or XP8's. For a street driven car the AX6's are the better bet.

I use what ever semi metallics I can find. You really don't want anything aggressive in the rear.

I use a mostly OEM setup. I need to swap brake fluid and install Goodridge SS brake lines and the car will be set for a while.

All around are Centric Slotted rotors, Carbotech AX-6 pads up front, Porterfield R4-S pads in the rear. Tires are Dunlop Direzza ZII

Planned fluid is Motul 600 along with the brake line install. I will use the OEM master cylinder.

EDIT: I am very happy with how the car brakes now. A good squat, no more horrid dive.
