What Brake pads for track use?
 
Does anyone know who makes pads for the GTR?

What brand and type of calipers are on the GTR?

Just curious, I am sure knowledge will grow once more people take the to the track. :smilie_th

Sorry, I see they are Brembo..

Yes, the calipers are brembo, however for the track you would want an aftermarket track pad. Something like a nice Pagid that will withstand the heat and not fade. Bone stock the new 2009 GTR will be pretty fade resistant due to the enormous size of the brakes, but on brake heavy tracks, you will still want an upgrade

Nismo S-tune pads. I had great luck with them and they are very driveable on the street as well. Try these guys if you can't get them in the states:

Try the Carbotech (www.CTBrakes.com) XP Series pads. I use them on my track car and love them.
