Project Mu HC+ pads for 135i

karlenstein · 02-08-2009, 03:54 PM

Just ordered these from Japan!

Build to order in 7 days.

Had these pads on S2000, Civic EP3, Integra DC2 and Nissan 350Z and they are really great (both for street-sports and track use).

the question is will this pad damage the piston??

well if you run the risk of damaging the pistons from heat, get some slotted rotors to reduce heat transfer.

Project Mu makes great pads, I've also had them on my cars, great choice!

I already have BMW performance brake rotors.. (slotted/drilled) and i am kinda "easy" on the brakes... so I should be safe.

About the pistons... Afaik anyone who had problems was not using specific pads built for the 135i calipers...

Many people are running these HC+ in Japan w/out any problem.

List price in Japan is Yen 63,000 for front/rear pads + shipping. You can easily get them for about 20% off that price.

Will let you know whenever i receive the pads, they should be ready in Japan within Friday and then they are going to ship them to me in Italy.

Stay tuned...
