Brake pads Duralast or WILWOOD
When I had an NC, I put wilwood pro matrix pads on. I did a few track days a year and then drove it daily in the summer. They held up great, but I wasn't super hard on them at the track.
Pros: held up great, good for daily
Vehicle:
Mazda
Wilwood White.
I've used duralast (gold) brakes on every car I've owned. Never had a problem. Only issue was the tabs on a few pads have been too big and I needed to file down 1/16" or so to make them seat smoothly in the slots. Quality seems good to me.
Pros: Quality seems good
Cons: tabs sometimes too big

They currently have sales on their duralast branded ones and even hand bundle sales. Duralast won’t be the best, but guarantee it’s better than those sawdust with grey spray can paint pads.
Pros: better than sawdust pads
Cons: won't be the best
Everyone in Aviation has switched to Duralast brayke pads, it seems... They should have stayed with Akebono.
Cons: should have stayed Akebono
Avoid duralast cause their pads don’t have good bite or good overall braking power. And sometimes they don’t fit.
Cons: no good bite, bad power
