I just bought a set of them and put them on my R32. However I havent had a chance to try them yet as im still Flinstone status.
Slap on a set of Akebono ceramic brake pads, and you've got a car ready to take on any highway or race track \u2014 and that's exactly what Flieger is doing with it.
Brakes: Golf R front brakes with Tyrol sport bushings, Neuspeed stainless lines, Motul 600 fluid, Carbotech street pads
Anyway, the XP12's and 8's are freakin' awesome. Super bite, modulation and power but they're loud as hell on the street. Personally, I don't mind so I drive everywhere screaming like a banshee.
I LOOOOOOOOOVE my 1521's. Also they look snazzy.
Carbotech 1521's FTW.... Literally you will have to wash your car before you will have to wash your wheels. Unbelievable that pads make so little dust and stop this good.
1521s are insane. They really create next to zero dust.
Yeah I love the setup so much on the track I actually leave them on the car on the street and just deal with the noise from the Carbotechs.
A good street and occasional track pad is carbotech bobcat
Like the Akebono's better than the Hawks, but the smell is almost clutch like which can be disconcerning at times. Hawks stink when cooked, but not like the Akebono's.
