hawks vs project u

[35Blaze]

I need new break pads and would like sum feed back. I remember hearing from someone that Hawk break pad either do not fit properly or are not as good as the Project U. So basically my question is, should I buy the Hawk HPS High Performance Street or the Project U NS Street Pads? They are both the same price. Any input would be appreciated.

I'd like to know as well. I'm going to need some pads soon

I have the Project u ns pads and couldn't be happier. I don't get any brake squeal and there is less dust than the OEM pads.

One of my friends has the Hawk pads and he has one of the most horrible brake squeal ever. Not sure which one he has but I know they are for the brembos whereas mine are not. Hope that helps.

I love my Project Mu B force, they are perfect, no complaints, quiet and clean!

whats the longevity (I know it's hard to say depending on road conditions/driving habits)
between these two?

+1 for Project Mu Racing brake pads.

Have not dealt with the Project Mu's but I have been using the Hawk HPS pads for as long as I can remember on my G35. I love them!! No dust, no squealing, nice stopping power, and no issues. You can't go wrong with them IMO.

I have the Hawks on my BBK and cant stand them.

I've had the Project Mu NS on my car for the past 2-3 years and love them!!!! I highly recommend them.

Just bought the Project Mu NS pads, talked to a friend who swears by them. He got them after taking off his bbk and says that his stock brakes are awesome now, no 14 inch stoptechs but a TON better than everything else he's tried.

Thanks. I'm getting the Project U NS Street pads. When I put them on I'll let you all know how they perform.

Where is the best place(best price) to buy project Mu brake pads?


thanks.

Coming from a person whose had both the Hawks Ceramic HPS and Project Mu NS Street... you couldnt go wrong with either one. They longevity is good, no point in putting a timeline becuase driving conditions/styles/environment/miles all play a role.

I bought my brakes from R&D Factory which is a vendor here.

Project U's will own a comparable Hawk anyday... but be prepared to replace them more and they will probably make less dust than the Hawk. I honestly would stay FAR away from Hawk...

Let me explain this, my OEM pads lasted just barely 10K miles and I had
dust an inch thick/chips all over my wheels. With my Hawks the dust is
minimal and they make zero noise. I'm at 24K miles on the clock and they're
barely worn. The noise brake pads make can be erased by doing the correct
brake in procedure. I would do this with any pad because the only sound
I want to hear is my exhaust rumble. Find BRAKE IN PROCEDURE by doing a
SEARCH.
