i'm running the ultimate pads, they are awesome, with quite the initial bite. however, in the cold i have found that the first time you hit the brakes they don't work too well. give them a good tap and they are better. straight awesome compared to stock on the autocross course though. you wont be disappointed

proparts usa, they gave me the hook up on the rotors, and a good deal for the pads too.

Axxis Ultimates are great pads although they are a bit on the dusty side.

hey if you guys want these rotors, or the Drilled & Slotted, or Slotted setup get em from http://www.nurspec.com they have free Fed Ex shipping and their base prices are some of the lowest you'll find.

Be prepared for squeaky brakes and wiping down your wheels every few days from all the dust. Other than that, they perform great.

I have the stoptech stage 2 kit with slotted rotors. I used them at the Redline Time Attack at Summit Point, WV. The brakes outperformed my tires, lol.

I'll echo squeaky and dusty with the ultimates, but they have some fantastic braking power. Definitely outstops my tires.

I'm not happy with my Ultimates... way more dusty than I was expecting them to be. Not ridiculous, just more than I was really thinking they would be.
