i don't do any type of racing, but i'd like to take my car out to some SCCA events in the future. i'm looking to upgrade my pads from my O.E. spec ones. i plan on just using O.E. rotors, but i want something to add a lil more stopping power since i am running 19 in. wheels. what are your guys suggestions? i want something that's fairly quiet and low dust. TIA.
looking to upgrade my brake pads, need suggestions.

EBC is really low dust..just becareful not to get a to agressive of a pad you'll warp them OEM real fast

For the difference of price between OEM rotors and Brembo ones.. don'T keep crappy OE rotors..
Pads: Hawk HP+. Enough for some events and provide very strong brake power track/street.
btw, racing/lapping with 19inch wheels isn't a very good idea..

Brembo Blank rotors with Hawk pads FTW
my set up is on the way...
Rotors were under 100 shipped from tirerack, pads were free from a gift certificate to tunersports.com
id stay away from cross drilled or sloted rotors...

nothin wrong with slotted rotors. im puttin on powerslot's with EBC greenstuffs pads tomorrow. ive never heard anything bad about powerslot slotted rotors. ive only heard things about drilled ones cracking.

Yeah, my buddy put powerslot rotors on his big *** 2500 Ram, and damn does it stop good. I do believe that he got the EBC greenstuff pads becuase I remember that his pads were green when he bought them from summit racing. Its good stuff, and I recommend it. Though his brakes did sqeek all the time, but now that they're broken in, they're great.
