Project Mu Racing 999 brake pads

We've been working directly with Project Mu regarding pad applications for the FR-S/BRZ (as well as some other platforms), and the decision was made to import a custom run of the 999. If you've tried the Club Racer or HC+800 on track, take the characteristics of those pads, and amplify them. The best comparison I can make is a 12 year old scotch vs a 18 year old scotch. The 999 offers more bite, and more modulation; this is the most robust offering Project Mu has for consumer level motorsports.

As with any brake pad, it's difficult to quantify the pad itself with just numbers, but specs are available here: http://project-mu.co.jp/en/products/pad_999.html

This is not a pad that is typically imported into North America, and the pads is being specifically constructed at our request. CSG will be stocking an extremely limited supply of these pads. Once our inventory is gone, it's gone, and the next order will have roughly a 3 month lead time.



*edit*

I got a few PMs with questions about this pad. This is a RACE pad. Please do not purchase these unless you intend on using these at the track. (I will be using my sets street driving... but I track and canyon a lot). You will NOT be happy with these if you are only going to be street driving. Expect elevated levels of brake dust. Additionally, expect noise until the pads are fully bedded.

B-Spec or B-Force brake pads are good as an aggressive street pad, autocross, or extremely light track duty.
