Sorry I missed this request earlier.

It took some experimentation trying different brands to establish a solid and balanced setup, that can handle the heat of lapping. I hope this info saves someone $$$, as trying different brands of pads, rotors and fluid did add up.

From my experience, this setup is quiet, but there is a fair amount of brake dust. Pedal feel is better than stock, but still not spectacular.

Please note my car is stock in terms of power, aside from a muffler mod, and a drop-in filter. If you have a lot more power, and track the car, you probably want to look into a big brake kit.
