Has anyone used both the Project Mu pads (either the NS or the B-Force) and the Hawk HPS pads? I want to upgrade my pads, and have been leaning towards the Project Mu's, but they are on backorder (typical for a Mackin product!). The shops I've called have recommended the Hawk HPS since the Project Mu's are out of stock. Does anybody have any thoughts/advice about this? Thanks in advance for your help.

 

The Project Mu's drop alot less dust on your wheels, and have excellent stopping power. They are worth the wait.

 

MU's are worth the wait. I have the NS......they are more street oriented, but still a significant improvement.

 

I can get the NS's now, but the B-Forces are on backorder. Should I pick up the NS, or wait for the B-Force? I am trying to 'upgrade' my pads, and I'm sure the B-Force are better than the stock Brembo pads, but I'm not sure about the NS. I haven't seen much info on the NS.

 

I've been told that the NISMO pads are the way to go....

 

hey... another option other than project mu would be to get endless brake pads..
SSS low dust.. and good heat range.
also another important factor LOW NOISE!!1

 

My NS's were on backorder for a month when I got them. I opted for the NS b/c I am not a big tracker. The plus side is I have zero noise and no dust. I mean no dust....washed my car Saturday and the wheels are still super shiny!

 

have you guys considered...

i heard good things about the project mu b-force. that is a US only product.

 

Well, I called Mackin Industries this morning, and they got a shipment of the B-Force pads in for the fronts. They said the rears would be here Oct 5th. So....I called Doug over at 350zonlinestore.com, which is where I bought my rims, and ordered the fronts and rears. So I should have them sometime in the middle of October. I'll let you all know how they are when I get them installed. Are there any tricks to swapping pads, or is it pretty straightforward? Thanks for all your replies guys!
