I cant wait to do mine really.
In the Impreza (crap brakes compared to the S2K) it made the car acceptable.
With stoppers like this already, its going to be immense.
A little more dust, but nothing like redstuff.

Bump for a great product at a great price.

We already have 6 units, if we can get 10 then I will speak to the Italians and see if we can do the deal.

If i didn't already have a spare set in the shed, i'd be in on this GB.

One of the best pads on the market in my view.



They can be hard on discs with hard track use, but on the road as they give an immediate improvement in brake performance and on the track they just don't fade.

Hi

Just to give me an idea....

How much would stock pads be per pair front & rear?

Done 21k in my car so pads presumably up for renewal soon. My car gets quite light use as I got 19k out of my rear tyres. Front's have loads left!

Hopefully plenty left in the discs.

Thanks!

You probably have about 50% based on that profile
I drive quite hard and am on 23K with about 5mm left on both ends.

They're so good they crack your disks before they fade.

Erm.. I know this is a bit off topic but. my pads haven't been changed in 3 years of ownership how do I know when they need changing?

They have recently started to squeak at the front so I guess I may need some! If I need them I am definitely up for these as I want to learn how to change pads and it gives me an excuse to paint the calipers at the same time!

Pads are real simple to change and it's quite satisfying to do something for yourself.

Sounds like your fronts may be on their way out, let me know if you want me to put you on the list.

No idea, try Brakes International or ring your local Honda dealer for a price.

The Ferodo will be a fair bit more expensive, although Honda won't be cheap, but these pads are not comparable with OEM. As with anything you pay for what you get and with these it is money well spent.
