Brake pads Project Mu or Mintex
I have Mintex pads, and I like them. Almost no dust. other Brian has Ferodo pads, and he has told me that he is not happy with them.
I used Pagid, Feroda, then Pagid, now Mintex Red.. once these are worn I'm back to Pagids.
I should also add that the Mintex Red pads that BLUE NRG is using are one of the faster bedding pads on the market and have a much wider operating temperature than most high performance pads and certainly most race pads.
I got Mintex pads from Autotech for my 97 Jetta 2.0 in Jan. I do a fair amount of city driving and drive the car kind of hard all the way around. Mintex pads worked great with almost no dust and were much better in the rain. (stock pads sucked in the rain) I only had them on the car for 5K then car got wrecked but I plan to get them for the new one..
I have the Mintex Red and Zimmerman rotors. I warped one pair of rotors already but it was really quick so I am returning them they could be defective I will see if I get my money back. There is almost NO brake dust with the Mintex, but they are LOUD as hell, if I have the radio off I can hear them when I hit the brakes even if the windows are closed.
