    im not a real fan of bendix anymore, they have less pad material to what other have these days, and a shabby sort of finish on the pad,

    i use maxi-stop bizztec organics

    hmm off the top of my head i cant remember now, havnt seen an invoice for a while, but i think they are about 45-65 somehere in there thats heavy duties, standards are a about 10-20 bucks cheaper


    they are good for the price, last a dair while, arnt as dusty as bendix's etc, note the heavy duties take a lil heating up in the morning for great braking performance,

    but on our track day, matt (torquative) burnt out his brake pads not sure if they were bendix, these maxistops in mine are still brand new looking, and im still using them today

    i got some bendix HD's put on not too long ago and they seem ok, got slotted RDA's from greg in less than 24hrs for $189 delivered i think, and they're going on tomorrow, so we'll see if they do any good, but the last set i had was a huge improvement on the standard discs
