Well its time for me to update my brakes, they are kinda doneso.

Car gets daily driven and auto-x regularly

What would be a good rotor to go with? Racing Brake?

And i was thinking HP+'s on the pads...

Any suggestions are welcome.

If you don't care about weight, just go with the cheapest rotor you can find. If weight is a concern, then buy a two piece rotor. Be careful, some two piece rotors weigh more. I bought mine from Performance AFX. Save about 2lbs. front. 3lbs. rear.

HPS or HP+. Takes more pedal pressure to stop the car with HPS. That can be good if your a masher. I've been running HP+ this season.

Carbotech Ax6 is great compound for what you are looking for and a Dba 4000 series rotors. What year is the car?

The AX6™ takes the place of the Panther Plus™ compound that was so successful. AX6™ was specifically engineered for Autocross applications. A high torque brake compound delivering reliable and consistent performance over a very wide operating temperature range (50°F to 1150°F +). Advanced compound matrix provides an excellent initial “bite”, high coefficient of friction, and very progressive brake modulation and release characteristics. AX6™ offers high fade resistance, rotor friendliness at all temperatures, excellent cold stopping power, and non corrosive dust. As a result, AX6™ is an excellent choice for Autocross & AX6™ has gained tremendous popularity with SCCA Prosolo/Solo2 competitors for its fantastic bite, release & modulation. Many drivers use the AX6™ for street driving as well, even though Carbotech doesn’t recommend street driving with AX6™ due to possible elevated levels of dust and noise. AX6™ is NOT a race compound, and should not be used as such. AX6™ shouldn’t be used by any intermediate or advanced track day drivers, and should not be used with “R” compound tires (racing tires

We also have just added this product to cut brake noise

I'm a fan of Carbotech and the AX6 are fine on the street as long as you are not so soft on the brakes.

The dust does not damage wheels/paint like the Hawk stuff can.

Don't even think about Racing Brake!!!!!!!!!! As mentioned talk to Bob at Performance AFX for rotors, he make a really good product and is a great guy to work with. JD

I have these on my 07 and like them a lot. They are lite and last a long time.

I just put CarboTech XP10 front and XP8 rear on both my 89 (a/x with hoosier A tires) and my C6Z06 (occasional street but mostly a/x and track also on Hooseir A's).

More agressive than CarboTech recommended but I am very happy wiht performance. The DO squeal! but the dust comes off easy and they DO stop, even when COLD IMO.

I expect to switch my road race RX7's to CarboTech from Hawk next year.
