I thought I would share some info for the guys out there looking to upgrade their pads with the Akebono sport kit in the near future. I have tried many different compounds for the street and track, but these kick some serious butt.
The CL Racing pads are an amazing solution. The CL RC 5+ are perfect for the street. Amazing bite, low rotor wear, low noise, and moderate dust... these are the perfect daily driven pad.
The CL racing RC 6 and a great solution for the guys who want a pad that makes your sport brakes feel like 6 piston calipers. They are noisy, but the bite is crazy. They have low rotor wear and moderate dust, but I am confident you guys will trade the occasional squeal for the nasty amount of initial bite. They are near impossible to fade as well.
With either kit you will find they require little to no break in and your rotors will last as long or longer than stock. I thought I would start this thread to get a discussion/review going and see what you guys think about them.
We can get them for anyone interested or if you are in the area I can take you for a ride in the shop car to see them first hand.
