    Hi Smithy,
    Running at Silverstone was restricted due to fog so I didnt get chance to give the R4 rears a proper test, however from what i have seen the R4S seem more suited to the rears, the R4 maybe a touch hard, braking doesnt seem quite as good but that could be many factors including a recent fluid change (even to the same fluid that I used before)

    R4S rear still get my vote as the best yet in all Situations, cost/wear rate.
    R4S / R4 fronts are also great very similar performance to Ferado but cheaper.

    Me too - they are the ONLY rear brake pads I have ever used that have been any good.
    Redstuff
    Mintex
    Blackstuff

    R4's are a little hard for the rear, R4S are perfect


    The only pad worth using in a S14 rear caliper might be almost twice the price, but last twice as long.


    Just the 1 set, for now, I'm hoping to upgrade to 300Z rear calipers/disks and I'm assuming these will be a different pad.
