Hawk Street pads

I used these on my coupe and liked them. If I use the Tirerack (cheapest place around) brake finder for an '03 Z, it says there are no Hawk pads that work. I'm assuming this is a website search engine mistake as how could they not fit as brakes are the same, but thought I'd drop a note in case I'm missing something. Thoughts?

thanks :cheers:

Re: Hawk Street pads (kraff)

Are these Pads Metallic or Semi-Metallic?

JEGS has them.I have them on the front of my '02 Z.Incredible difference from factory pads which needed cleaning several times a week for my daily
driver.Essentially no dust.

The HPS streets are ferro-carbon compound (carbon-fiber/metallic)

With what type of brake pads does the Z06 comes from the Fabric?

Semi-metallic?

Re: Hawk Street pads (ivan111)

Yesterday weather finally cooperated and our club(CCDV) finally got to run.
After 16 runs at ATCO,I can definitely say that the Hawk pads do not stop as well as the stock ones.At 113 mph,definitely needed more pedal pressure to
slow car down.Not enough of a difference to make me go back to the factory pads and put up with all that dust again.
