if ya got the cash just get yourself a motive bleeder, a set of good track pads and learn how to do your own brakes. youll feel like a stud and save money in the long run. i dont DD my car so its got DTG 70s all around. believe it or not, my brakes dont make much noise at all. now dust. lol thats a different story.
I about died laughing when I read this! I'm going to tell the rest of my Camaro club the true definition of HPS! I love it!

I just did a track day yesterday on my Hawk HP+ pads in 97 degree heat. My calipers were 420 degrees after a cool down lap and parking in the pits. The HP+ pads held up just fine. I had them on my FRS as well and loved them for track days and autocross. If you can live with the dust, they're fine for daily driving but I'm putting my stock pads back on in the off-season.
