Time for a brake job on my z brakes, got my slotted rotors picked out, don't know which pads I should go with. Mostly street with a lot of aggressive driving and random track when time and money permits. Just looking for people who have run either of these and their opinion. Thanks.

Project Mu NS or Hawk HPS
Re: Project Mu NS or Hawk HPS (Clawhammer)
I really think either one would be a good choice.
I have the Hawks, and they have a really nice braking power. Not so much that it's difficult to brake as hard as you want, but strong enough to make a large difference. I noticed little to zero fade on some recent spirited mountain driving. However, they are a bit noisy (squealy) when only using them for light braking.
The Project Mu, I have no experience, but they have a good reputation, so I would be confident with those as well.

I got Project Mu B-Force. Wanted to get HPS, but people say that you get a lot of dust from them. I like B-Force pads. No squeaks and not much dust.

Re: (Clawhammer)
I've used both, I like Mu B force pads, but it's formulation is more aggresive then the HPS pads, & I noticed my rotors wore down more with the Mu pads.
Re:
NS is one step down from B-Force, so it should be less aggressive than B-Force.
