I need to replace the rear pads and maybe the rotor. What are the best pads and rotors i can get for about 300 -350

 

I have and like the Project MU B-Force pads.

They were pretty cheap too and dust way less than stock without any noticeable squeaking or squealing.

 

I've been using HAWK HPS pads for 40K miles and wouldn't use any other pad! Long mileage, very little dust and using the bed in process they stop SLICK way better than OE pads...Gary

 

Just a note... he did specifically ask about Brembos which are quite different than the OEM non-Brembo pads on the 03/04 Coupes.

 

Yea my car is a 03 . I was looking at hawk , are they good with the brembo caliper? Any suggestion guys? I want pads that are gonna be worth having those calipers

 

Holy crap.... when I ordered Project MU B-force pads for my Brembos like 4 or 5 years ago they were about $180 total for both fronts and rears. Now it's almost $300 total for the same pads. Still great pads though.

 

B-Force pads for sure. Excellent street pad. Don't believe the Hawk HPS hype. Take it from someone who actually goes to the track.

 

Those are $160 for the tears !

 

Jairen, how can you call anything "hype" that works? HAWK HPS pads stop our cars extremely well, they last 30K+ miles and leave very little dust on our high $$ rims! Track, that doesn't compare to making canyon runs on the tight narrow turns at high speed above Santa Clarita on a regular basis! SLICK and I were on the track at Auto Club stadium a few years ago when I ran 18" wheels/tires, sure the speed is higher but the cars ability really shows itself with my suspension mods doing twisties in traffic or trying to follow rice rockets!

The reason why I say that Gary is because they do not offer much fade resistance over OEM pads. It's isn't a secret and widely known. I used to canyon carve lot when I was in SoCal. Almost every other weekend. I constantly pushed it hard enough to find its limits. The lack of initial bite is also widely known with HPS pads. Great price though.

 

Hawks do not perform well in wet weather either. And I agree, initial bite is terrible. I would look elsewhere.

 

And as far as rotors go, Adams Rotors who sponsors this site, puts out a great high quality part.

 

Are our pads the same as the evo and sti? If this is wrong can someone give me a part number for rears and suggest a good place to buy?

I've never had issues with bite or fade possibly because I did the bed in process which gives pads 30% better stopping ability.
When looking for HAWK pads the best place to buy them is our Marketplace under vendor brakes.

Among my poor experiences, here are some other testemonials regarding poor performance with Hawk pads.
