Ok, I have 16,xxx miles on my car, and my front pads are nonexistent, and my rotors look like records! I was thinking about some Hawk Pads and Powerslot Rotors.....do you guys think this is a good setup, or should i go with the Team Spugen Slotted Rotors, and ceramic pads?

Thanks,
John

It depends what your goals are with the brake setup.

 

heavy street use, with occasional track/autocross.....only 1 or 2 times a year!

 

Well, unless you're in it for looks I'd just get replacement OEM rotors. There's some good info/discussion about slotted rotors here

As for pads, I've used Porterfield R4S and Carbotech Panther+, both of which are street/track compounds. Either one should work for the type of driving you're going to be doing.

 

For a functional setup the above works very well. Don't forget to change to high temp brake fluid for the track though.

 

I wonder if it would be possible for S2KI to force a user to perform a SEARCH before posting a thread. It is so sad that so much effort has been wasted on the many "Library" threads.
