Default I just put them on for a track weekend and they are very noisy. Braking is very good

I have the stock HP2 callipers and the front set was $177 from raceshopper.com. I could not find Ferodos DS2500 for the HP2 -- they must not make them anymore. If anyone finds them, please throw a link our way.

Also, I would like to get a set of A8 carrier brackets and rear rotors. If anyone has any suggestions for a good price, etc, please come forward.

Default you want the s8 rears. Vast has 'em

I'm very lucky to have found someone (flying_low) in my own town who sold and installed them for $250. They are (were) near-new.<ul><li><a href="http://vastperformance.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=25&amp;products_id=28">http ://vastperformance.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=25&amp;products_id=28</a</li></ul>

Default Tested cold braking the last couple of days, and it's way better now

than before the track. I guess it just needed some serious cooking to bed them in properly. Cold braking still isn't as good as street pads, but they're fine.

Default

I had to bed mine two or three times to get them to really wake up. They are killer pads.
