My previous IX: RacingBrake ET500

Loved them and will be ordering a set for my X once the stock Brembos are done.

<grin> Considering how my stock pads looked at 5K and the replacements that caught fire, "fine" is a compliment. For street use, I'd like more initial bite and less noise.

Currently, RacingBrake ET-500

Summer/Autox=RacingBrake ET-800 or 900

Have tried, CL RC6 (awesome), Axxis Ult, Hawk HPS and HP+

Never tried the PFC pads. No reason really, just haven't had the opportunity

The IX MR has been on the RacingBrake ET-800 for street pads for a few years now. From the stock brakes to the current setup of the 13" Rotors and RB 4pot caliper. The ET-800 work well in the cold but can be a bit squeaky. The car is not driven in the snow, so I can't comment, but in the dry in the northeast winter they perform great.

Racing Brake pads on now. Worse bite than the Mu's I had previously.

I believe I used to use PF pads on my Integra years back but they were just OEM replacements from the local auto parts store IIRC. They did their job though.

Was going to go to Satisfied's GS5's next time around

Recently switched from Hawk to Raybestos ST43. Track-only for me...
