Does Endless offer pads for our cars? I had some on my 300ZX TT & they were AWESOME! Great cold & superb under extremes.

THe reason why my setup is a good good compromise is that I only have OEM pads in the back. The dust is not bad at all for the back pads since they are fairly small vs. the fronts

posiquiet are awesome for street use, just don't drive like a maniac and/or tail people like 2 inches from their bumper, and they are more than adequate!

I disagree! Their cold performance can be scary at times. I'm not sure what rotors you have but this is true with crossdrilled/slotted OCAutoSports rotors! I'm pretty sure I'm not the first one say this.

Endless does make brake pads for our cars but they are expensive!! Hawk HPS pads are terrible and i'll never put them on my car again unless they are the HP +. I'm getting the Project Mu B-Force pads. From what I've read online, there are no bad reviews on PM.

Project mU NS are great pads.


I'm running the Posi Quiet right now. They are good pads but suck until you warm them up. A few good hard stops and they start to bite. If you are running the ATE Super Blue fluid its got really bad cold braking as well. When they are both warm they work great...even for street.

I have Hawks HPS and they can be quiet dangerous in colder temperature.

Running posi-quiet semi metallic pads with zinc plated cross drilled slotted rotors, and I recommend the pads to anyone whose a spirited driver or a weekend racer. Cold braking is not as good as OEM, but good enough to get you out of any "oh %$%" moment. Once the brakes are warm they bite like no other and you'll be happy you have 'em. I found these pads didn't create a lot of dust so that's a plus. I also used them for the occasional autocross and never felt any reduction of braking distance due to heat. Other than that, I currently have 21,000 miles on both of those and now braking is starting to feel a tad rough, but happy they lasted longer than stock pads.

Only regret I have is having a slotted rotor since it does make braking a tad rougher. Will only be going cross drilled ONLY for my next rotor. Would definitely buy the posi quiet semi metallics again.

Has anyone tried Centrics Posi-Quiet Ceramic Pads over the Semi-Metallic ones?

On the fence between these or the HPS.
