I run them all year, but I do not mind the added noise. The 5s' are a good compromise for moderate track duty and daily driving.

Just like to say you have an awesome wife, I'm trying to convince my GF to get into cars a bit more.

Are they avalaible for the front and the rear Akebono calipers ?

I love the RC6E, although i wouldn't recommend street driving these since they are self lubricating by heat. A day or two either side of an event is fine and helps scrub the rotors clean.

On track they are quiet (no squeal) and only take one stop to get up to a suitable operating temperature. Easy to modulate, smooth bite and release. Which is good for the Z since the ABS doesn't like super aggressive bite pads. They have twice the wear life of other pads I've used which offsets their cost.

How much noise are we talking about. Will I be embarassed like it is a twenty year old POS screeching, or how would you describe it? I need a brake solution by September.
