I use all of that and still get quit a bit of noise with DTC-60 and CL RC-5. I guess it could be worse LOL. But I still get angry looks at stop lights (I don't daily the car and am too cheap to buy another set of rotors).

I use these + some form of shim, usually what came with the pads - haven't had noise issues on my current brakes, but are u saying it's eliminated noise with your st43s?

The ST43's would probably just know you were trying to shut them up, and get louder...
