Hawk HPS. I'm contemplating running their autocross/track pad (HB178N.564). Still somewhat streetable and has a better bite with less brake fade than the HPS pads. They're noisier, and make more dust, but i guess that's the compromise for better performance.

Oh Jesus man, you're not doing yourself any favors! HPS can fade on the street from a couple of highway stops. HP+ are better, but not by much. Do yourself a favor and get dedicated track pads if you're serious and swap them in.

I used to run the HP+ pads, predominately for the track, but there was to and from the track driving as well. They were effective with Powerslot rotors and a 135 WHP KA24DE full out on Big Willow and Streets.

I actually will be adding weight in the future. More sound deadening in the trunk area, and probably 2 8" subs, maybe even a half cage. I want to go fast but i also drive my car to the track and i gotta have music!


Btw, how come you've never been out to Buttonwillow?

haha I see. is it your daily as well? that is a really good lap time for a daily car!

I'm not sure.. I ran into personal things twice before the bw event.. my best time there so far is 2:03 with stock e46 m3 running rs3. hopefully I can get into low 50's with 240 running TDs.

pretty much. i wanted to keep it worthy of road trips and such.

here's a video of my lap from Buttonwillow. if anyone has any inputs it'd be appreciated. i know i could lose a lot of time with some more experience.

Roughly 2:30 at VIR full. This video is from 2001 or so. Boltons, shocks/springs, might have had the JWT ECU.

Same event, chasing a similarly modded S14

Full interior, weight was in the 2900s with driver. Suspension techniques springs, KYB AGX shocks, Toyo RA1 tires, stock brakes with track pads (mostly Hawk Blacks or Blues) and air ducts, no aero.

With intake/header/exhaust/cams/ECU the car ran around 160 whp on dynos.

Around 1:30 at Roebling Road, also early 2000s, with the extra weight of a passenger. Boltons, shocks/springs, must have had the JWT ECU by this time because it doesn't look like I'm in the speed limiter halfway down the straight.

Yea, stoked about that. Thank you!

No power added either. Changes were different dampers, new spring rates, brand new transmission, wider wheels, and different final drive. Oh and less sticky tires (RT615K vs RT615K+)!

Change that in the OP

Yes! I'm on the 2 way remote reservoir setup. I think I shared my rates in my previous post. I'm at 600/500 now.
