Brake pads for the track?
I have an 05 6MT that I'd like to take to a track day in a couple weeks, and I want to swap out my brake pads for something suited for the job a bit better. Do the brake pads come out the top of the caliper, like on most Brembo and Stoptech calipers, or do you have to remove the caliper to get the pads out?
Also, does anyone make a light duty race pad for the 05 calipers yet?

My experience with the HPS is that they aren't that much better than stock and that they squeal and dust way too much for a "street" pad. I'm looking for something along the lines of a Hawk Blue, a true light duty track pad, that I can swap back to my stock pads when I'm finished.
Does Hawk make pads for the 05 calipers, or are they the same?
