[s-cars] Brake Options?

[Vincent Frégeac]

I have Hawk pads on my 90Q20V and Pagid on the urS6 and Pagid made a
more noticeable difference than Hawks versus the OEM pads. But that's on
two different cars so it's still a guess. Anyway, I'm really pleased
with the braking power/fade with the Pagid pads/Zimmerman rotors with
stock calipers. Still trying to work out this mushy pedal.

Along those lines, any suggestions on what a good pad is for the stock
brakes? Pagid?  Which one?  Any pad out there that makes less dust but
still has good pedal feel?  Had a set of organic pads once on my Coupe
GT that had zero dust but no braking in the wet for the first second or
two -- scary!

>I will echo what Vincent suggests.  It is absolutely amazing the
difference a new set of pads and rotors makes.  I no

confidence in the brakes again.  I think the problem with >the OEM set
up is that after you wear them about a third of the way, or so, the
system gets too much flex in it and you

money for now you can put in new rotors and pads all

as the pocket book allows.
