Try ebc pads as mentioned

they lil pricy, but worth the cost, and last long

you can get them at GPS in St James
628 1278



easy solution to the brake fade, is stop driving like a jackass on the people and dem road

you asked about the power slot 12" rotors..
i have them on my honda and nun but 17" wheels will work on there..
the brackets are to adjust the calipers so the rotors would fit...
coupled with hawk pads and they work really great...

Good tires man...... so i have narrow it down to the prelude vtec 11'' brakes... So besides re-drilling, will the rota fit up without brackets... or u do u use the whole brake assembly (caliper & rota) and slap it on. Very Happy
