I have the Hawk Hps pads and there great. A little better on the stopping power but what I love about them is I don't have to wash my wheels everyday. I have tracked the Z twice and I have yet to experience fading with them.

Hawk = Overrated.

I love the DS2500 Ferodo for a Z or a G.

Ya I wish I knew about Ferodo when I bought mine. I have heard nothing but good things about them.

What is your plan for the Z?Price range?

well my plan is to just stay all motor, I dont wanna really wanna deal with the headaches of forced induction, I just had a plenum spacer installed and I'm pretty satisfied with that . Headers are with high flow cats, another set of Pirrelli's, some pulley's, Maybe a stage 2 clutch, lightened flywheel for sure and I'll let a pro F*ck with the ECU, but thats probly about it, I'll probably just say F*ck you world and buy a 370, I came close already.

I prefer older women...



I fell in love with her the first time I saw her, it was on Autobahn 81 just north of Stuttgart and well before any of the US car mags had exposed her to the general public. She was so young and innocent then.

Immigration kept us from being together once I got stateside.
