Default seido-ya brake pads?

i just wanna know how many of you guys have experience with seido-ya brake pads? i tried to search but just got little information. It's very expensive and maybe popular in Japan(becasue i saw many Japanese race cars have its sticker)?

pretty good pads for the track. As with all race pads they will make a noise, sometimes unbearably loud. Sometimes the pads are silent, sometimes they scream. Not the worse I've tried, though.

Not sure why anyone would want these on the streets though. Although it can be done.

I've used the same pads and at times they scream like crazy. It depends on the rotor, and the ambient conditions I think.

So really depends.

Hi there

youre right, Seidoya is quite popular in Japan. im from japan actually (though currently living in Dubai), and all my street-racing friends in Japan use seidoya.
as mentioned by others, there are times that the brakes are very noisy....and sometimes not at all.

as for how we do it between my friends in japan and our garage there, we use the seidoya pads with stock calipers and disks. the characteristics of the pads is that it attacks the disk....so the brakes do last long, and we are very fond of the stopping power. however, the brake-dust is quite ridiculous lol

funny enough, I actually just ordered seidoya pads from Japan to be sent here....and im very excited.

i dont know if i said anything useful....
