Tricky-Ricky Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 What would people recommend? I'm starting to think my current setup is feeling a bit lacking in certain areas IE high speed bite, UK brakes with what i think are Project Mu pads. So I'm looking for something that has good initial bite from low and high speed, with good anti fade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike B Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Been though a few but Ferodo 3000 have worked very well for me and are my favourite.. what a lot of race cars use (so i'm told) and I have no cold running issues at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Endless carbon composite MX-72 pads would be my ultimate street choice, not cheap though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the 2500 Ferodos on my S14, but i always found they needed to be warmed up first, so no good for cold braking in traffic, whats different about the 3000? Heard Chris's pads mentioned a few times, but are these specially made for him to a special formula or a proprietary brand adapted/adopted? Anybody changed from Project Mu pads?

bignum Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Good question tricky, i could do with finding a replacement to the performance friction pads ive been using as they`ve stopped making them for the supra:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bignum Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 What are you currently using? 97 compound performance friction on uk`s, very good pad albeit dusty/noisy but there`s no more after this sets gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Just a quick bump, to see if anybody else has more recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 If there's any serious interest for more Performance Friction pads I can have a call around my contacts and see if any are still lurking on a shelf anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
