Nice work!

Too bad I just did my brakes a couple of weeks ago. I'd have given these a shot.

How's the initial bite compared to, say, OEM and Hawk HPS?

The initial bite is very comparable to the Hawk HPS

[Amped]

He'll yeah Corksport with another product that we can trust. Unfortunately I did my brakes like 5k ago but great work.

[ABolewski]

Perfect timing!!!!! Was hoping they'd come out soon. I need new pads! Might as well get some SS lines while I'm at it…

[rolanblack]

Anyone running these pads? Its either this or EBC pads.

What kind of materials are you using in your pads? Semi-metallic? Ceramic?

I'd give reading op a try.

Placing my order now. Turns out my pads were a little more worn than I thought and that this mornings' canyon run was NOT a good idea...


...StopTech slotted rotors have been added to cart.

[manila]

Less brake dust??

[802MS3]

ha a hell of a lot cheaper than buying OEM pads. nice price.

[Nliiitend1]

I don't suppose there's any chance you guys would disclose who makes these for you, would you?

[stevehuff]

The damn Chinese.

But in all seriousness, the price is right on.

[Dr. Speed]

Definitely be trying these after stock pads wear out.

How would these compare to EBC Red Stuff?

[stevehuff]

Did anyone else read the blog where it said low dust formula?

[dereeek]

Very nice!

Yes, less brake dust.

Not a chance, sorry!

We did not compare ours to the EBC Red Stuff during testing. I checked with Derrick to see if he had any input also, but he has never run that brand.

What is the MOT for these pads?

Not sure what an MOT is? Please clarify.

[Tommy]

Also, I respect your decision to not disclose who manufactures these for you but it would make it a hard sell for me and others to basically go with a rebranded pad from an unknown company.

Our pads are not rebranded. We designed the pads specifically for mazdaspeed with the correct clips etc. and chose the compound after doing extensive testing on several compound options.

[Tommy]

I believe you did but not knowing the manufacturers reputation still leaves room for doubt. We've all heard of pads wearing out too soon or even breaking so it's that one piece that is missing for me. They could be the best pads ever and I hope that is the case but for me, I'd have to wait for the long term reviews to come in.

Still love ya!

I appreciate that. We did extensive testing both on and off the track, so I am confident that customers will be more than pleased with both the quality and performance improvements gained from the addition of these pads.

I look forward to getting feedback from the community!

[ABolewski]

Alright so with a little help from Derrick yesterday I installed the CS SS lines, pads, and StopTech rotors. Drove about 300 miles last night. First off, with all that the difference in braking is astronomical! The difference is night and day!
Also, typically after a tank of gas my front wheels would be black from the stock pads. There is no visual difference between the front and rear wheels with these pads, they dust WAY less. And no noise of course.

EXCELLENT products CorkSport!

[scriccs]

Any more reviews on these? Hows the initial bite on these? Any comparison to stock?

Looking to upgrade in a couple of months.

[ABolewski]

@scriccs; I notice a cunt hair more initial bite but Idk how real it is. This biggest benefit is that the brake dust is essentially gone on the front wheels.

[magicka]

It's a shame I didn't wait a few more months, then. These sound perfect. I like the low dust of the HPS pad, but I do miss the initial bite of the OEM setup.

Maybe that's due to the ss brake lines

[LumberJack]

Very nice product. It's great to see new options for the MS3/MS6! Corksport always making topnotch products!

I was the lucky person who got to beat these pads up quite often and the are very nice to daily drive with and pound on with some higher speed action as well.

[Dr. Speed]

I'll be ordering these when my OEM pad have had it. Anyone else been running them and care to share your impressions?
