Default Which pads?

Hey,

Got an 06 Hawk STI, looking to replace/upgrade the pads.

Any recommendations on here?

Been looking at

http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog...roducts_id=143
Or
http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog...oducts_id=1965

Should i just stick to Brembos? Are Ceramics worth it? Both about the same price, looking to see if anyone else has made the switch...

Ta!

EBC redstuff are very similar to Black Diamond FT pads in performance but they are cheaper @ £85.15 http://www.scoobyworx.com/black-diam...pads-690-p.asp

I rate the BD pads better but i guess thats down to opinion really.

If your going to spend £110 on red stuff i would prefer maybe some CL RC5+ pads which will outperform many pads of the same value and are £124.31. They arnt RC90 approved though due to them been way better than the oem ones. This means they are officially track use only but many do run them on road cars. They can be a little noisy but boy do they perform.

Good to know, thanks. I knew i'd seen another Scooby shop in the UK, but couldn't remember the link! Thanks!

Shame i can't find one inside the M25 that'll do servicing etc.

Yeah Alyn you have a point your PF pads will better than ours i assume

Joking aside the CL pads are quite raw i find but i do like the bite from cold and overall performance, i just don't like the squeal
