Great autocross and street pad
By Chris
I bought these for my single piston front caliper, 4-bolt 1987 RX-7 GX to replace some Monroe ceramic pads that were on the car. This car only sees street driving between autocross events and is driven at the events. I find the dust to be tolerable, although a bit on the high side, there is virtually no noise and these pads bedded in quickly without much fuss on brand new rotors. After 15 events and 3000km of street driving with these pads the rotors still have the machining marks just barely visible on the surface and there is no measurable wear of the pads so they seem to be easy on rotors and have good life. I found the Monroe ceramics took a really long time to warm up and had almost no bite when they were cold, often requiring both feet on the brake pedal and standing right out of my seat while still being unable to lock up the RS-3s on the front or rear wheels, then they would reach a point where they were warm enough to work decently. With the Hawk HPS pads I have no issues with braking ability warm or cold and they have a nice predictable feel to them when you are trying to find the lock-up point braking into a corner. These are obviously not suitable in any way for a full track car but they are an excellent street/autocross pad and if I ever wear them out or get another car I wouldn't hesitate to buy another set! The only oddity I have found with these pads is that with the old ceramic pads my front tires would lock first, even if I was already turning into a corner when I started braking, while with these pads no matter the situation my rear wheels always lock first. It wasn't hard to adapt to but the first time it happened on a course it was a little surprising.
