Ok so my 95 S14 needs new brake pads, the rotors are in great shape since I'm really gently with my brakes, prefer to coast and downshift to slow down and use my brakes last to stop unless I absolutely need to use my brakes.
Anyways, I have a 95 S14 Non ABS, not sure if I need to change out my fronts but I definately need to replace the rears. I say cheap because I'm currently laid off and have to use my unemployment to buy everything for right now. I'd go with stock pads but I have cross drilled and slotted rotors and stock pads just defeats the purpose of having upgraded rotors in my book. I currently have Hawks HPS' in the front and PMU NS pads in the rear, I'd like to go with the same setup or perhaps run HPS all the way around or vice versa. I do have a set of PMU NS front pads that I got when I got the brakes 4 or 5 years ago but were told they didn't fit even though the box says S14 on them, I don't know if this is because my car is a 95 or b/c its a Non-ABS car.
I've seen that when it comes to pads for my car that sometimes they say 4/94 - 9/96 does this mean that the S13 front calipers are fitted on the early model S14 Zenki's and this is why my pads didn't fit?
I can't afford to go with anything too expensive otherwise I'd go with the Endless Neova's or the PMU BSpecs. I need some advice on what are good reliable pads that will work for daily use as well as some hard use for drifting and possibly even auto X. Again I don't want stock oem pads since they don't run as clean, last as long, or perform as well as the performance oriented pads. I live in Philly so stop and go traffic is a regular especially at rush hour.
I've checked Touge Factory, Enjuku Racing and Phase2 on their prices as well as some of our other sponsors but can't decide who to go with. If anyone on here knows of any other places or where I can get a discount or anywhere that is having a sale please let me know and let me know what you would run with, again I like the Hawk's and PMU's but have heard good things about Rotora's, also any inputon the pads that FRSport has on sale right now would be great.
