Perfect description! I used to love pissing of asshats on cellphones at stop lights with the loud squeal:umad: lol but yes, great for street/auto x but I did get some fade @ Infineon towards the end of a 20min session(my old crx with 11" brakes front and rear) Oh and they dusted a lot
they squeal but not as much as hp plus. but thats the trade off of getting more aggressive brakes. I didnt care what sound it made becuase i tracked to car.
but if youre just going to drive on the street just get axxis delux or ultimates
ultimates if you autocross.
hpde events just go buy some race pads from porterfield or cobalt friction and switch them out for track days.
Will this car see any track time? If so get an aggressive track pad and keep the OEM's as well for daily and autocross. Any pad that mentions that it can be used on the street at all is going to be absolute garbage on the track and will fade in 2-3 laps. You can use an aggressive track pad to clean rotors. Just drive around with the pads in lightly for 2-3 days and the pads will scrape all the old pad material off the rotors and you can re bed them in on the first couple of laps at the track. Drive home on the track pads and typically by the time you are home or a couple of days later the rotors are clean again and you can put your OEM pads back in and bed those in. Voila.
hps is ok for track use if each corner is spaced far enough for the pad too cool down, but for track with lots of corners and not much time to cool down, it will over heat
