most of poeple love hawk hps ans a few peopel have some issues with noise include me.
its good choice if you dont have track. (it seems like hawk hps for brembo has more issue than regular stock brakes)

i have regular stock brakes. im very happy with no dust on the wheels but i gave up on the noise issue. mine makes noise stopping under 20miles/hr.

since you are in MD, order from tirerack.com and use ground shipping. its cheapest shipping and will deliver to you next day. (warehouse is in delaware)

performance sells same but their s/h is higher since its from ca. and takes 5-6 full days.

The Nismo pads don't seem to have too much of a noise problem, and they are holding up really well (with numerous track days). High performance pads tend to squeek a lot if you baby your brake. Also, you have to make sure you bed your pads properly and re-bed them once in a while to make sure there is some brake pad material on the surface of the rotors. Then the noise shouldn't be a problem.

My friend works at Pep Boys. He bought me Hawk HPS front pads for $48. He can get rears for $45.

I got my Carbotech Bobcat's straight from Carbotech at www.carbotecheng.com

I love the pads. No dust, no noise, more stopping power than stock.
