Hawk Brake pads question

I am trying to order brake pads right now and it looks like i have two options:

One is for models before 06/2002 and others are after 07/2002 one month and there is some kind of a difference? I never new that. Are they really different?

here is a link: http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/resu...utoModClar=&brand=&category=Pads&perfcat=perf

 

Just figure out when it was made and order the ones you need.

 

where would i look for the built date? I know my car is an early model i think even 2001.

 

Most cars the build date is on a sticker on the door or in the door jam. Usually drivers door

 

hang on dont order yet. ive got a link for u

here are all of them together

 

thanks very very much! I am pretty sure my car is an early 02. Thanks.

 

Thanks

 

You need the 4-pots. Don't waste money on old style pads. Go bigger.

 

yeah if i had 600 bucks to spend on new calipers.

 

Go H6 rear and 4 pot fronts

 

that would be great nuke. But i got nice brand new rear rotors for a very good price and they are stock size. I dont want anything crazy. I already ordered SS lines and i am pretty sure it will be a nice set up with Hawk hps pads Cryo treated slotted rotors and a good brand new break fluid.

 

brake, not break

 

Spelling Nazi

 

^ No I think he got it right for his circumstance.

 

you should support the local guys. call diversified cryogenics in burnsville. (frozen rotors) get your MNSubaru discount

 

Oh yeah that went well for me...

 

I have nothing but good things to say about DivCryo. Even when the Audi Rotor demon (Seriously, if you own an Audi get the part numbers off the rotors and call DivCryo. Audi changes rotors/pad configurations much more often than anyone else) struck they fixed the problem as quickly as possible.

And the deal I got on my rotors and pads for the Legacy with the club discount was fantastic.

 

yeah I should do this tomorrow.

 

Divcyro FTW! great group of guys over there.

 

Around how much it will cost me for front sloted, vented and cryo treated rotors plus front and back hps pads?

 

I did my whole setup with Hawk HP+ for <$400. Your's (without the rear rotors) should be around $300.

Go to their site and plug in what you need. Get the total and subtract 15%.

That should get you a good ballpark figure.

 

you do know that slotting, drilling and venting really isnt worth the cost right?

 

EtchyLives, you're talking about hp+ for wrx, right? Cause if its for SS, I want to know where did you manage to find those?

 

yeah I know that slotting does not so much, I like how it looks tho.

 

however I heard that it makes gases escape easier from under that pads when you brake.

 

I have a build date of 7/02 on my car. Mine take the 02 pads all the way around. I have had several sets sent/bought that do not fit. It boils down to the tab size on the front. If possible pull one out and take a look.

 

does that group buy discount still works?

 

i just picked up some, excited to put them on!

 

No. For the SS. Giggle giggle.

I swapped my calipers to an RS setup so I could get the pads I needed. The RS Calipers and brackets still fit under 15" wheels and use the D721 FMSI pad (same as the 02 WRX). Now I have almost limitless pad options. Hooray!

Taras, go down to DivCryo and ask them if they'll still do the club deal. It's technically over but they let me get mine after the deadline. It can't hurt to ask.

 

^ How were the HP+ pads during the winter? When my HPS set is toast I might step it up to HP+'s.

 

I only really drove them last Friday and Saturday. They lock up pretty easily so make sure you've got ABS. You can still modulate the pedal pretty easily, though.

I like them. They are not as near as noisy as I'd anticipated.

 

No abs here, that crap is for weenies
