All,
Let me share some insight, as i believe i changes my pads more than anyone i know around me. Kiasu driver here, i brake hard and pussy on the accelerator.
Previous twin pot (AE111) with Project U SCR
1. Yes the normal brake pads is easy to source, but not adequate in braking power for my usage
2. Endless SSS (Cheetah in the blue box), good and solid feel - forget where / who i get it from, lasted 3 short race
3. Unable to order back the same Endless due to EOL or no demand in malaysia, switch to SPK HD Kai by Project U (N1 Racing) - temperature rated 500c and yes this has a slight better feel and it is not easy to distinguish this or the endless is better. Brake fade is nearly impossible for this set. Manage to use 2 sets of this pads within a year and there isn't a 3rd one to order anymore.
Waited for 3 months and i didn't participate in any event due to 'No brake pads' . What a lame excuse!
Now : VR4 twin pot with EBC SGD rotor
EBC DDX Bluestuff : best pads i ever use up to date, starting temperature 0c. -ve side is on the rotor. 2 short race, 2-3mm of the rotor is gone. Didn't experience brake fade at all.
EBC Greenstuff: this is on my spare car with the same caliper conversion. Cracked after 2 track days. Louzy pads!
EBC Redstuff: replacement for the greenie. Ok, better with the same respond as the Blue stuff. I classify this as cheap and good without complain.
well, that is my journey. Since now with Vr4 calipers, any pads i want i can just walk in and buy without the worry of 'No stock'. Bear in mind, there is a slight weight increase over the Ae111 calipers it really affect a little. The car has a little understeer effect 'Only if you can feel it with street tires'.
