i had project mu rotors (slotted/driller) and project mu titan k pads for about 2 years. pads lasted about 6 months with 2-3x a month in the tracks. the pads are pretty good, very predictable and consistent from day 1 until it was replaced. i also tried axxis metal master and it lasted longer than my titan k. but not as good. but will do for occasional tracks/canyons and daily grind.
not noisy at all unlike the project mu titan kai. but i like to brake late so i'll deal with the noise and brake dust. i sold my rotors and got me a brembo slotted/drilled and had extra money to buy my pads. i am back to project mu titan k...
i go to tracks all the time and my rotors aren't cracked nor waved.

axxis metal master - overheated the brakes (AKA FADE) at buttonwillow but held up at streets of willow.

titan k - after about 2 laps at buttonwillow, temp stabilizes and consisten all throughout 25 minutes of lapping (grip full config) same goes at buttonwillow and california speedway infield.

for drifting, i highly recommend racepads of any kind. my choices are project mu titan k and porterfield r4s. both front and rear...
with race pads at the rear it will help you bias the brakes out.
therefore locking the rear only required a little more pressure in the pedals. with racepads, you can come in really hot and still stop! i had no problems with either pads with either rotors.
i ran out of titan k... so i'm using nissan brand right now until my pads gets here. it still stops!! but not as good.. heheheheh that's why i was using the rumble strips at buttonwillow to help me stop.

brake setup:

stock s13 calipers, nismo ss line, brembo (slotted/xdrilled) rotors, valvoline syn dot4-5 brake fluid, project mu titan k pads.

don't forget to bleed brakes... important. do it before and after racing.
