Doing my brake pads and wondering if anyone has any opinions on pads? I’m thinking of EBC Yellow or Hawks. Car is only driven on the road but I am willing to spend more if it really makes an improvement.

I definitely like the Porterfield R4-S compounds. Carbon/Kevlar compound that works in the street temperature ranges. Low dust and noise.

QUOTE(Eric_Shea @ May 13 2018, 04:33 PM)  I definitely like the Porterfield R4-S compounds. Carbon/Kevlar compound that works in the street temperature ranges. Low dust and noise. The 1970 that I’m enjoying needs new front pads. But could you confirm that I have the original brakes, from this picture? If so we can have a set send my way. An additional question I have: the disks have 8 bolt holes (I’m using 5 of them). Is this a custom machined part, or can I just purchase 5 bolt disks in the future? Thanks for helping.
