Default Matt has brake pads.

tooling around the forum and i just read "maddmatt" (former carbotech employee now BHP employee) has brake pads. 2 different compounds

cr6: he says is a good auto-x pad, lite track duty, and can be used on the street. (aka, panther replacements )

pr3: balls out track.

both compounds in ad18 and ad22 sizes. http://www.bhpbrakes.com/HTML/blank/RaceAppN.html

Does he know if the CR6's last as long as the bobcats did? I'm assuming he had a large say in the compound design for this application so the performance would be equal to or greater than that of the Bobcats.

I'm thinking 15-minute sessions at a trackday or SE-R convention with AD22's, and however long on the street to, from, and however lazy I am until I change them back.

matt also says they are just as street able as axis ultimates.

Few things:

CR6: They are DUSTY. Good news is, the dust washes right off with soap and water. Zero damage to wheels. They sometimes make a little noise on the street under normal/light use. Overall, perfectly streetable, and a great dual-purpose pad if you can live with the dust and a little noise. I also autocross with them in STX.

PR3: Not a street/combo pad. Dust is a little sticky on the rims. Stop like the Hand of God though. Will not fade ever.

Do either of the pads come in a Wilwood-compatible size? Speficially, billet Dynalite, as sold by Fastbrakes? Also, what about 240sx applications?

No Wilwood applications. I do have the Z31 pad that 240 guys like to upgrade to.

When Matt says "like the Hand of God" on the pr3's....believe him. We had to push Greg's eyes back into his head after a session of having them pop out of their sockets. Think as if you threw out not one but two giant anchors that dug into the concrete. Right tires and those pads, you will flip your car ass over nose if you try hard enough.....and they are still able to be modulated...

I cant speak for the CR6's but know id buy anything that Matt said was quality in the brake pad department
