Oh yeah, I have some more photos!  This thing cooks down the straight (126mph & on the revlimiter before the braking zone), so I hope to be turning some pretty quick laps once I sort out the braking, shocks, and learn to drive more-betterer :D

Always loved those cars. Something about the look of them. Just cool!!!!

Since stock brakes have less braking power in the rear, smaller caliper and smaller pads, I see no reason to use different pads.

I ran the same grade pads all around on my ZX2SR and never had any rear lockup,no abs. 

This worked on ice too.   Stock pads.

Stoptech Sport pads are my go-to recommendation for an HPDE pad.  If I'm lazy, I can actually just leave them on the car for street duty too, and they don't squeak or kill my rotors.  They don't melt, even on my heavy cars using 200 treadwear tires on high-speed track.  Bite and stopping power are not much more than stock, though.  They don't cost me nearly what a dedicated track pad does.

Interesting, sounds like it could be a less sharp and bitey alternative to EBC Yellowstuff. How's the dust?

They're dusty.
