Just FYI, But I have 4 sets of street and racing pads in the FS section on the cheap. They came from my old set up. All brand new or less than 200 miles.

Our kit makes noise at times, but it's minimal, and totally normal.

Small update but recently I switched my street pads from Hawk HPS to Ferodo DS2500 and the clicking noise is totally gone.

I do. 21,500 miles on the car, about 11,000 I think (would have to check my car's thread) on the kit.

My FRS is basically a weekend car. Althought the brake kit hasn't seen any street issues.

Thanks to everyone for replying. I was just curious how well the kit is holding up on the street. I've considered the Formula kit route, but knowing that the dust boots will eventually disintegrate and make a mess after some track time makes the Sprint Kit even more appealing.
Any input to push me in either direction (Formula vs Sprint)?

If I had to do it again i'd do the same and buy the Sprint. I was considering upgrading my Sprint to the Endurance, but the fact the Sprint rotors are cheaper to replace has kept me happy. |

Can't go wrong either way. One may suit your needs better than the other. I'd just call Jeff and have him give you the pros/cons for your environment. |
