Low dust street performance only pads in order of quality in my opinion starting from good to best 1. Project MU NS400 $179 2.WINMAX W1 $219 3.HAWK PERFORMANCE CERAMIC $351 Performance pads not low dust pretty even on performance need to drive hard not soft. Street/track 1.Ferodo DS2500 $427 2 Winmax W3 $266 - really at this price it is the best pad for dollar. We can also offer other brands and materials including Intima , Bendix and EBC but the above are the better in my opinion.

They are all pretty much as good as each other and i would not hesitate to run either. The Hawk may be better overall but the cost factor is based on brand and where they are manufactured. The rear pads are cheaper.

The Remsa pads are pretty good but they are dusty and they are another brake pad we can offer but didnt list them as they are a street pad and most people want low dust for just street pads these days. We can offer a wide range of pad choice but the ones listed are my top choices.

Hi Matt,
Spoke to you earlier this week regarding the dust issues with the 6/4 Brembo's on the XR6 Sprint. Like the sound of the Hawk Performance Ceramic's, despite the cost. Could you please clarify if you recommend them for both front and the rears. Whilst at it, maybe a price for the Winmax W1 front & rear. Would be keen to hear from anyone using either to get their impressions about the difference in dust and actual stopping performance. No track use, only standard daily driver here. |

I had the Hawk HB616Z.607 (Brembo 6 piston) on the front of the Turbo Territory with DBA 42102 XS discs and Hawk HB194Z.570 (Brembo 4 piston) on the rear with DBA 42108 XS discs. This is my preferred option. The Winmax are dusty and noisy (squeally) as hell. I have them in the car now. Project MU were good but dustier than the Hawk. The Territory is a fast, heavy, modified vehicle with a Brembo 6/4 combo. I am a heavy/late braker. I did have the original discs resurfaced, so I don't know if that may be my problem as Matt has indicated that the Winmax pads are quiet and low dust. .

Matty recommended Winmax W1's for a daily drive pad on my Typhoon....
No complaints here....stuff all dust and while you wouldn't take on Bathurst with them, stopping power on the street is no worries.......wear is ok too....

Unfortunately we have found the W3 compound has a higher % chance of pad squeal than a W1 although the W3 will brake better.
Winmax and also RBS have been testing a new material that has better braking than a W1 but also no noise and low dust like the W1. The feedback has been good so far so keep an eye for this pad in 2017.

Hi Matt,
Will need to get a set of front rotors and pads organised reasonably soon. Can you please price both the Brembo and DBA rotors to suit the Sprint (is one better than the other?) along with recommended low dust pads Delivery to 3015 |

Brembo rotors and Project Mu pads $800 DBA T3 rotors and Project Mu pads $679 Just have to confirm the Project mu pads are available. I can also get the Winmax/Circo new material which adds about $40 extra too the price.
