Brake pads for Wilwood FNSL 6pots.
The brake pads are about due on my Wilwoods. Currently had the Wilwood BP10 compound which is a street pad. They went ok, but got chewed up after about 6 race days. They obviously dont like the high temps too much.
The brakes are Wilwood forged narrow superlites 6 piston calipers. With the 13 x1.25 inch rotor. Wilwood call the pad size '7416'. I dont know if this corresponds to a universal part number for vrake pads etc? Im looking to get a new set soon. Just wondering opinions on compounds. (doesnt need to be genuine Wilwood) Have msg'ed GSL rallysport and he has suggested the QFM AR1M. But i have also seen dome hawk pads to suit these brakes, and also about 10 odd different compound from Wilwood aswell. Just curious on peoples thoughts. I know this has been done to death, but ive never really paid attention to brake pad materials. and also they would have to be in a size to suit the Wilwoods. I want them to have decent grip from cold, but be able to really grip and not get shredded when they get real hot. Currently car is doing tarmac sprints of maybe 3 hard laps, then 1/2 hr wait between runs. and no real warm up laps before each run. Steet use isnt really an issue as car does virtually no street driving. (well just to and from races) here is the wilwood branded pad compounds.
