Pads
Can't find any recent info on brake pad upgrade options, so would love to hear some updates from fellow A90 drivers (and shop owners) who've found pads suitable for moderate track use. (Trackdays / sprints / time attack on high-grip street tyres)
In Australia we have the GT and GTS trims, which get 330mm and 345mm rear brakes respectively (both get 348mm front brakes.) I have a GT and am struggling to find affordable options.
The CSG CP pads seem appropriate, however they are pricey and the 330mm rears are only available in C11 compound. Winmax W3 seem like a strong alternative, however I can't figure out which ones to order for my GT.
Also, do we need to transfer the brake pad sensor to the new pads?
Big Brake Kits
The AP Racing by Essex Competition Brake Kits look amazing, and I'd be tempted to jump straight to these (rather than upgrade the pads in the stock brakes) however it seems they still haven't incorporated the rear parking brake.
Somewhere in between?
Has anyone just upgraded the rear rotors and pads, or possibly all 4 rotors/pads? This seems like a fair middle ground that would be relatively easy to accomplish...
