Like others, I too run Zimmerman blank Z coats on both vehicles, EBC Red pads on the Beetle & Hawk 5.0 on the Tig.
I use Hawk HP5 pads and love them. Feels like stock.
New brake pads and rotors, front and rear. Rebuilt brake calipers. Hawk and OEM parts.
I got Hawk HPS pads recently on my 987.2 Cayman and they definitely have less dust and equal or better braking power.
Also the Hawk 5.0 pads are GREAT.. squeak a bit, but they are a high torque ceramic pad which have great bite. They dust like crazy.
Bought Audi S3 caliper from a wreck yard on eBay. Also used Hawk 5.0 pads. Tremendous brake upgrade.
For me, these were the Hawk HPS 5.0 and G-Loc R12 pads.
This time, I had some Hawk 5.0 brake pads and Motul 600 brake fluid installed. The better pads, and especially the high-temp brake fluid have me peace-of-mind so I could focus on the business of driving and continuing to learn the track and the car. Made a HUGE difference.
I have installed Porsche calipers 996.352.425/6 calipers on the front of my MK1 TT with stock sized 12.3" discs with Hawk HPS pads and SS lines.
The M240i needed new pads and rotors. I order HPS 5.0 + Zimmerman rotors from FCP's site which says they're compatible. I install them and the car sounds like a jalopy. Loud wub wub wub under braking and only braking, more pressure == more loud. It sounds like it's coming from both fronts.
