Default brake pad?

I need new pads and I'm looking at hawk hps or pfc z rated for street/autocross uses. Does anyone know how these compare to the stock z06 pads. Thanks

Default

My impression is that the HPS doesn't offer enough of an improvement over stock to induce a lot of people to install them.

On the other hand, a fair number of folks have tried the HP+, including me. I'm pretty pleased: not too noisy, not too dusty, nice bite in an autocross application. I mated them with Brembo replacement rotors, something else to consider when you think about changing pads.
