Aren't they the ones you get from SuperCheap LOL!

Somethings I might buy at SuperCheap - infact I enjoy going there. But not for the things I rely on to stop me in a hurry, time and time again.

When you think about it, your brakes are much more "powerful" than your engine.

A pad start from 0 degree is cruitical.... you are very true Hymee

But 500 degree is still low for track use. Street or even light track is more than ok. MazdaSpeed pad goes up to 600 degree

 

Taka,

Check out all the endless pads...

After the "SSS" they get into pretty much "track only" types of pads for over 530, and look at the price! I thought mine were expensive enough!

The NA-R are 0 - 600 rotor temp, so is that like the MazdaSpeed ones?

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

SSS is good value for money....

NA-R is too expensive.

Look at this Project Mu pads... Level 900 and it is 0 degree to 900 degree!!!
If I remember correctly they are 26000Yen a pair. So just below $300! That is what the best I have seen.

Look at their range in the chart below too!

 

For the record
They actually recommend HC+ for RX-8

Thanks Taka.

Those 900's have a high cooefficient of friction as well.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

You are welcome Hymee.

According to the ads that P.Mu put out for this new product (it has only been out for 2 months btw), they said it has the same dust creation ability and rotor chewing ability as the traditional HC (which is now replaced by HC+).

The only down side that it is noiser though. I think people who does not like squeaky brake should beware.

I am very interested in this pads. Mu secret in Sydney import a tonne of them. I will visit them when I am up in June (btw I am totally free --- AlfredOz ---- for that weekend )

MazdaSpeed pad and stock rotor do me fine at the moment, great stuff on the track without fade, good stopping ability, but very dusty little thing. I don't know how much is it left at present. When it goes, I will order the DBA rotor with P.MU pads and also paint the caliper to red.

 

huh...!

what did you all say

My head hurts! :o
