I have been trying to decide how to improve the braking performance on my 818S with '02 Subie brakes and Hawk HP+ pads. The car will stop and even the ABS functions but requires a huge amount of pedal force. I am thinking of going to a more aggressive pad on rear brakes only. Maybe that way I could re-open my proportioning valves to the front calipers and gain more overall bite. Anyone know if the EBC Yellowstuff provide more bite than the HP+? I have also looked at the Hawk DTC series, but they are for track only (not street use), and I do use this car on the street and to drive to the track.
