    new pads

    Ok, so I'm brake pad shopping. I'm kind of leaning towards the Stillen Metal Matrix (semi-metallic) pads. Anybody have experience with these? Any other pads I should be looking into? I'm hesitant to get carbon ceramic because of the whole low temp stopping thing. I'm going to be using these on the street, although I might go to a Solo II event this summer. Basically I just want to stop better. I'm also going to put in either DOT 4 or 5.1 fluid when I do the pads.

    thx,
    j-

      Ok, well I went ahead and got the Stillen pads, they're going on next week along w/ DOT4 fluid. Any suggestions for break-in period?

        DOH! I should've looked closer, because the rear pads don't fit, it's that old "fits 1990 - 1995" error with the first gen/second gen. So the thing now is that I have oem replacement pads on the rear, and while I'd like to have the metal matrix on the rears, but don't want to pay to have them installed twice I'm on the phone w/ Stillen right now, at least they have good customer service.
