Complete IS-F Brake Thread (Under-construction)
If you want a very low dust and no noise pad for the street thats cheap. I suggest the Duralast pads that Auto Zone sells. I got the top model they sell (Golds) because my friend had them on his Brembos on his TL Type S and told me to try them out. I don't track my F and was tired of how much brake dust the OEM Brembo pads put out, the wheels got dirty after a day. Well with the Duralast pads, which were only a little over $100 for front and rear pads, work great. Also it now takes at least a week of driving to even see any brake dust on the wheels compared to before with the stock pads. I love the fact that the wheels actually stay clean now. Also I noticed no difference in how the car stops, feels almost exactly the same as before. I kept my Brembo pads in case I ever wanted to use them again. The Duralast pads also have a lifetime warranty. So you really will only have to pay for them once.
calitri, those price looks a lot better than project MU, a lot better and your review sounds about the same as the PMU. my cheap side of me tells me to pick these ups. lol. what to do.
I was skeptical at first too until i test drove my friends TL with the same pads. Even if you don't like them for some reason they will let you return them. Its been about 2 weeks since I cleaned my F and the wheels are still clean.
do you have that rust ring around the rotor like some other pads that dont fit perfectly? does it comes with shims?
New Information
Guys - Here's the scoop on Brembo manufactured discs, straight from Brembo's website.
AIMCO can be had for under $100 a rear rotor. Not bad for genuine Brembo parts...

Has anyone installed Stoptech Performance pads on the Isf?
I read many great reviews for other cars incl. track use reviews. Very positive.
Couldn't find anything from Isf owners. Please anyone?
I would love hear some feedback, if not, I will order these and provide some feedback for you,
as soon as instaled.

They work like OEM IMO, and that includes the dusting, which is horrible. Granted I have them only on the rear with raybestos rotors. I won't be using them again, but I don't track my car and will be looking for a pad that doesn't dust. If you're not concerned with that then they are a nice pad.

Well....That's fine.

Heres what i think of the pas
- Brake performance is on par with OEM
- They do dust but it is noticeably better then OEM pads
- Don't Squeek

I will be swapping the front pads only, because I have about 70% left
In the rear. Sounds like this will be right on with my rear stock pads.
Awesome!
Thank you for the feedback.
