Default Installed: Project Mu HC+ (front) and B-Force (rear) [Akebono]

As most of you know the install was stupid easy. I was able to do all four wheels (one wheel at a time) within an hour.

So far, I am pleased with the results. My car is a daily driver and will see some rare track time (maybe 2-3 times a year), so I bought these with the intention of having some piece of mind when i decide to show up to an autocross/track event, but at the same time being able to daily them without going crazy.

As far as the daily driving feel, the brakes have a noticeable increase in initial bite compared to the stock pads, as well as increased stopping power. My main complaint is the amount of assistance from EBD (electronic brake-force distribution), which may be due to me mix-matching the pads... maybe not. the amount of dust with the B-force is not noticeable (granted they're in the rear) but there is a high amount of dust from the HC+ pads (noticeable layer on the wheels after 150 mi of mixed highway and city driving).

Overall, I would highly recommend these pads for a daily replacement. I'll have an update on the track use after Nismo Fiesta (novice road-course driver).

Here's a picture of the new and old pads. I'm sure you guys can figure out which ones are which.
