Are there special pads or do any after market brake pads work
( I ask because the car I bought has the setup but the brakes are sqeaking bad and I have an aftermarket set of hawks already)

mine started squeaking after a hotlap session yesterday. i am running the stock Galpher pads, those are the ones mustang5l5 showed you. they are very good comprimise pads. the hawks have been known to squeak a bit. i am thinking of trying Carbotech pads for my next set, or at least trying to find a set that will be the same front a rear.

wait, what brembo setup are you talking about? i have 4 piston brembo calipers? if you mean a cobra kit with brembo rotors, then you dont have true brembo brakes. you have brembo rotors with pbr calipers.

you can go to any dealership that has cars with those brembo brakes setup and ask for a price quote on them....like the mitsubishi, subaru, infiniti, nissan. They can vary from 70-100 depending where you go
