    Warping isn't so much an issue because the MPS I'm pretty sure runs a sliding caliper anyway. What's more important in not ruining the pad is that it's bed in properly, and that the disc doesn't have any DTV (disc thickness variation).

    Not critical but always recommended to change or machine rotors where possible.

    A1RM Fitted to an S14!
    I used these pads on my S14... held up well! Similar in pad feel to Ferrodo DS2500s but without the hefty price tag

    Guys, I would recommend these. I threw a set on the other day before our Fish n Chips cruise and was very impressed with the initial bite and feel, they are definitely on par with the stock items - and so far have noticed less dust buildup too

    Thanks mate. From cold they definitely still hold all the properties of a normal street pad, but it's on the track or through the hills where they're in their element!

    Oh believe me, they got a good flogging that day
    So did the RT615s - im in love

    I wanted to make the point about cold bite in relation to the stockers because I know quite a few people who have been disappointed with the Hawk pads in this regard which are a popular choice.

    Hi Tone,

    Nah I skipped them after reading some negative comments.
    The plan is to get DBA 4000 slotted rotors next (When required).

    To be honest I have not noticed any difference over the normal pads in initial bite, if anything its better.
    Hard on they are great!

    More positive feedback from HPX users!
    HPX Pads received Greg- fantastic delivery speed!!
    Bedded them in last night and i can say i'm VERY impressed. They have more bight and better co efficient than the RB74's i was previously using with better pedal modulation.

    Hi Greg,

    I have to say the longer they are on the better they feel.
    I am now preferring these vastly over the stock pads, and I have to admit my rotors were not machined either.

    For that price im not going to bother even looking at the OEM items anymore, for initial bite and feel these win hands down.

    Cheers
    Justin
