Does anyone know if the stock brake pad's say Brembo on the back on the shim? I was told that the brakes on the car were Ceramic Hawk pad's, but I am thinking that these are stock because of this.

 

Stocks are not hawk. they are ferodo hp 1000.

 

I know that lol, I wanted to know if the stock pad's say Brembo on the shim.

 

The shims say Brembo, and the backing plate is stamped by Ferodo.

 

So those are the stock pads?

 

yes those are the stock pads

 

Yes! I love being lied too, thanks guys for confirming this.

 

Eh, stock brake pads are better than the Hawks anyway. Perhaps you were lied to, but you've got the more effective brake pads of the two.

 

damn straight Sox Fan!. great pad. great performance. great brakes. Need great maintenence if you insist on driving your car in salty winters.

 

I like the way the pads feel and stop but I don't like the dust and boy is there allot.

 

What do you mean great maintenance?

 

pins, pad ends in the caliper bridge, pistons need to be cleaned with soap and water, and compressed air, and q tips in pin guides, then coated with copper never seize to avoid galvanic corrosion. The banjo bolt block needs to be removed and the copper washer area underneath cleaned, copper never seized ,and then reinstalled with new crush washers and bleed brakes all round . Rear pad guides and sliding rubbers need same treatment

 

Well when I do the breaks I was going to look into stainless steel brake likes. So all that would be done, along with flushing the system.
