Yea gonna order Hawk HPS pads too. Not sure how much they are from rotorpros, but I've found them on summit racing for $140 something free shipping.

I ordered HP+ pads, not HPS. Different compounds.

Yup, misread. I think HP+ are a bit noisy for street use. But let us know how they are on the track!

Yeah I ordered mine for the NISMO Performance Academy track day. I have a set of posi-quiets for the street and an unused set of Hawk HPS fronts that a friend gave me.

Got my pads in today! Hawk HP+ should be good for the NISMO Performance Academy. Rich gave me an incredible deal so I'm psyched!

Huh, they don't look *that* bad but email Rich those pics and ask him. If he thinks they need replaced he'll send a replacement out asap.

Sent him an email. I'm reading other forums and it seems like it would either be a light filing job, or just letting the brake pad wear it flush.

I've done about 80 miles on them. These Hawk HPS pads, and doubled slotted rotors are amazing
I'll post pics soon, once I clean up my wheels lol.

Double Slotted were $200 shipped. Hawk HPS pads were like $150 or something. So ~$350 which isn't bad at all. The same rotors on other Z sites are $300+ by themselves.

How's the durability so far? Do you think spraying the rotor hats would do it better?
