What kind of brake pads are you running? Which brake pads run the cleanest yet give you good performance on aftermarket rotors Brembo cross drilled or dimpled or slotted ? Opinions greatly appreciated.

 

Axxis pads work well w/ my slotted/drilled Brembo rotors

 

* I have 2K2+ Soft Ceramic OEM pads from DaveB all around
* I have 2K4 Rotors up front OEM
* I have OEM rotors out back (original with car)
* 300Z calipers
* SS lines

Dust is a hair more than stock 2K1 pads. Meaning instead of once every 2-3 weeks...I will have to clean more like once every 2 weeks. I went with a non-slotted/drilled rotor as NOBODY will turn them down in my area. For ordinary (even spirited city/stop light to stop light aggression) you dont buy anything really going slotted or drilled. At least nobody has proved factually that you do in a non-track environment.

I have a slight squeek up front due to missing shims that should show up in a couple days. Back is quiet as a mouse.

I am still waiting to finish up my "brake" in. (Pun INTENDED) but so far the butt-o-meter says they are working VERY well. The weak part of the system is the suspension as I can REALLY get it to dive (ala almost bottoming out the front)

I know its working better as the ABS is kickin a little bit more than it used too. I am hoping to run these tests sometime next weekend (24th) to get a definative numbers run.
