Default Mu type NS vs Endless ssy

These brake pads may be not so popular among 350z people? search results didn't show much.
It's almost time to replace my shitty hawk hp plus that are no better than OEM as far as stopping power goes. i have non brembo.
Could you post some characteristics of those two brake pads?
i want some strong initial bite, great stopping power (strong enough to literally throw my eye ***** out lol), no crazy brake dust, little to no brake squeal, and affordable. To me, it looks like Mu type NS and endless ssy are affordable and very well known company for brakes.
The car is used for DD, autox and drifting
thanks

You are going to be limited in performance by your calipers, that's the first thing to consider. You're also not going to dramatically alter stopping power unless you change 1 or 2 things - weight and grip. Lower weight - better stopping. Better tires - better stopping. Pads simply manipulate the pedal feel to a certain degree (within the confines of the stock caliper), but do have a tremendous affect on noise, dust, etc. They are not going to significantly affect stopping distances.

Endless SSY: http://z1auto.com/prodmore.asp?model...ing&prodid=332

both work well and exhibit similar behavior

i have hankook v12 tires so i'm good there. i actually checked out your website before i made this thread.
after doing more searching, both pads aren't really for my application.
More like carbotech ax6 or project mu b-force. opinions on these?

I can't offer an opinion on those in non brembo applications

Not going to happen.

I use the stoptech pads for autocross....they do a fine job and meet your above criteria. They don't hold up to track abuse well, though.
