Hi beamish,

For trackdays I'd recommend Mintex M1155 pads - I use them in my 200 for trackdays and my golf for racing and they are really good. Work well from cold and don't fade. I've got 300zx calipers on my 200 but I think they do them for the std calipers too. I use EBC greenstuff on the road, only because the M1155s squeek quite a bit at low (<5mph) speeds.

Not sure when my next trackday in the 200 will be. Im racing the golf 3 weekends in August. Was thinking of going to Goodwood in November as its only £99 for a whole day with easytrack.co.uk - been there before, excellent track and fairly fast.

Let us know how you get on. Kristian also does trackdays - you could have a word with him about pads if Mintex don't do the M1155 compound for the std. calipers. I sold him my old std. calipers and grooved drilled disks.

Cheers
Jez

Thanx mate,
Ill go for EBC's and see what they perform like.Bloomin losers keep sending me pads for the earlier S13 (not 280mm discs).

EBCs greens are really good for the road but I got though a set at one trackday with grooved drilled disks....

I use std. 300ZX disks and the mintex on trackdays now - lasting a lot, lot better.
