brake pads: EBC greenstuff or hawk HP

meh. Ill tell you what I tell everyone. New Stock rotors + HPS = win.

Truth.

what about parts from a larger car with bigger brakes…say a ford 500 or tore-ass…or even mustang…have u looked into what might bolt up or bolt up eityh lil modification

the focus has a nasty wierd bolt pattern at 4x108, and the only other ford vehicles that share the pattern when it comes to rotors are escorts and cougars. the cougars have the same brakes as the SVT focus.

If You stock setup is just barely adequate…
You dont have a budget for the (most important mod evaR) brake kit…
If You are not hotlapping, or brake boosting very often…

:word:

yeah stay away from green stuff, i have em on my focus and they are terrible. Fading is horrid, worse then stock, and they’ve worn faster too

i had the greens as well.
lasted one year. they were better than stock…
but after a few months i had uneven buildup…
(made rotors feel warped)

when i’m done with my $9.99 autozone phase, i’ll buy real pads…
(lasts just as long as the EBC’s… and after all it’s only a cavalier :D)
