Just fitted Carbotech's xp8 brake pads front and rear on my 05 spec c today after reading alot of excellent reviews on the MLR, after doing the bedding in procedure i tried them for the first time properly and can definately recommend them they just get better and better the harder you press them, look forward to sunday now for the shootout

 

wich disk are u running mate.

 

I am running Tracktive's own grooved discs which were put on about a year ago mate

 

I used these pads a little while ago, they're awesome!!!

 

I have them in my car,,
Best cheap mod by far,
Changes the whole feel of the pedal,,
The abs comes in alot sooner

 

These pads really are brill, was considering a disc & caliper upgrade like the k-sport kits but there really is no need now for what i need the car for

 

Agree completely.

Just to show how good these pads are, i went from standard Subaru 4 pot with carbotech pads, to AP 6 pots with Ferodo DS2500's....and there is pretty much no difference between them.

Am looking forward to trying the Carbotech's with the AP's soon

 

I can believe it mate, they would be staggering with ap's

 

Where is the best place and cheapest for these Carbotech pads !
any body know how much they would be for the Ap 6 pot front and standard 2 pot Brembo rear as i need both !

Cheers
