Asked this same question, didn't get a reply as to anyone using rotora rotors and Hawks brake pads.

Other board members recommends the Stoptech Stage 2.

Where is this available? (Stoptech Stage2)

Which pads?

Hawk will be your answer...

NISMO will be even better with better initial bite...

I was use to have Hawk HPS pads along with Rotora Slotted Rotors. I had them for about 8 month ago. I was not too impressed with the Hawk HPS. Its seems like I lost some performance with the Hawks compare to stock but the advantage of Hawk pads were very very low dust and less fading problem under hard consistant braking but when it comes to initial bite, I think stocks pads bite better.

I don't track my car so I need a pad that has good intial bite.

Now I have Project Mu B-Force pads and had them for about 8 month. I really like them. Definitly better bite than stock but some members has issues with squeaks. I had a little squeak also but nothing major.I took out the rear pads today because rear was almost gone. I still have about 35% left on the front.

I just ordered some Endless Nuova pads the other day. I should have them next week. I am going to swap all 4 pads soon.

As for Rotora rotors, they are good quality. I don't have any problems with them other than not many places want to turn them because they are slotted.
