I went with Cobalt XR1/XR3. Less $$ than PFC, what I would consider equal in performance. And no Bedding!

This is where I get mine. Edwin is a good guy. Also on Raceshopper.com.

I'm partial to the Pagid RS29. Good bite, wears like iron, rotor friendly. Pricey, but not as much as the PFC-08, which is also a good pad. Some folks will do RS29 (yellow) on front and RS14 (black) on the back. I'm not fond of Hawks. Carbotechs wore out much too quickly. I use the ST Street/Performance for DD.

Enjoy your big brakes. Kudos for getting both front and rear!

thank you both for the help...need to start looking at all options then not just the pfc-08

I have the same kit and run the Pagid RS29's on the track. I find that the initial bite is not too aggressive and they are easy to modulate. I never have issues with heat with this set up.

I have run the Hawk DTC60's as well - more initial bite and not as much modulation.

What tires are you planning on running? With race pads and the StopTech brakes tire traction will be your limiting factor in your set up.

I will be running stickier tires this year, so it will be interesting to see how the RS29's feel.

Zeckhausen always has very wide selection of pads in stock and ready to ship.

1MOREMOD · 02-25-2014, 07:23 PM

I have cobalts now as well and was using rs19s before. Liked the pagids but haven't used the cobalts yet.

bigjae1976 · 02-25-2014, 09:44 PM

I think the Stoptech Race Pads are a great choice. They are the cheapest track pad out there that I know of and the SR34s are on par with the PF01s. The brake as well and last as long. Not sure what the other compounds are like but there is a lower torque pad that is supposed to be more endurance oriented (SR33???).

Win-win in my book.

1MOREMOD · 02-25-2014, 09:52 PM

Oh yeah have those on my car now, good value.^^^

Might have to look more into the st pads...didnt know they were that good

jphughan · 02-26-2014, 09:08 AM

Best price I've gotten on PFC 08s for an ST-60 is $500 from Clark at Apex Performance when I was a first-time customer. Everywhere else wanted $540-580, and Clark gave me even better pricing for being a repeat customer when I bought my second set.

Part number you want is 7793.08.18.44.

You have the SR33 or SR34? I've only found impressions of the SR34 and SR32, so I keep hoping to hear from someone on the SR33, especially if that person also has experience with PFC 08.

i have the sr34s right now at all 4 conrners. i like them and may be back to them if i dont find something i like better. never ran the sr33s.

Sebringjetta · 02-26-2014, 10:26 AM

The kit I assume comes with street pads?

yes still have mine sitting in the box.

Wendall · 02-26-2014, 10:42 AM

I just ran stoptech SR33s fronts with stoptech street performance in the rears on ST40F/R kit at WSIR.

SR33s offer great stopping power, and seem to pair well with performance rears. I dont have alot of experience with other pads so i cannot compare. They are a bit noisy when cold but they wear very well. Im relatively new to tracking so my only experience is with performance pads and the SR33s seem to have 20% more stopping power when hot.
