I've used Hawk pads on my Gen II and was very pleased. I have tried the other. Hawks will dust some.

Either one will work fine.  If using existing rotors, they need to be turned also.  Be sure to break in the pad/rotor combo per mfr instructions to get best performance.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Well talked to the people at www.buybrakes.com

Although there is the part number for the EBC redstuff they have not apparently manufactured them yet. So he was gonna call the UK and find out there build date.

Also we had disscussed the HAWK pads and he doesnt sho.w any in stock and would have to contact hawk to see if they have some in there warehouse.

Then we discussed the difference in the SHO PP and Non-pp brakes.. And how from the best we can thell the rotors are the same size and only the pad compound was the major difference in the parts that we would be replacing normally. Also try to figure out the difference between the consumer brakes and the police brakes..

Super helpful guy. He will be calling me back tomorrow. That was i can plan a brake upgrade.
