We have them back in stock. PMU/Mackin wasn't willing to import them into the states without a large commitment, so we took the bite...

PM us if you want a set.

I used the Project Mu HC+ 800s on the front only of my BRZ at Road Atlanta. I only did 2 20 minute sessions but I didn't notice any fade. This was on stock tires though, anything more sticky I would recommend something better. Maybe Carbotech XP8s or similar.

I did just decide to run a stickier tire (Nitto NT-01)

FWIW - I've had great success with my Carbotech XP-10s but need more track time to give better feedback, they are very streetable.

The Carbotechs are an easier pad to use, but do cost a bit more than the HC+800. For those that are willing to pay more for a better product (the pad compound, not the brand), the XP10 is a better starting point.

We have both in stock.

Where you at the chin event this weekend? Which FRS if so
