I need to do brakes on my '05 WRX. The most I do is mostly aggressive street driving and AutoX/Touge every now and then.
Has anyone used pads from Powerstop (Z26) or Stoptech (Street or Sport)? They're cheap from RockAuto ($40/axle) and I don't feel like spending $100/axle for Hawks. I'm taking the money saved and spending it on a set of Stoptech SS lines.
I actually can't find a lot of info on the Powerstops, but the Stoptechs seem to have mixed reviews (sports tend to leave a lot of brake deposits if not used hard). Other options are Brembo or Akebono Ceramic pads.

ayy thats what I put on my 07 WRX. They're a good value, Hawk HPS is over priced imo

Yeah they are given its a old compound. They'd run me like $170-200 for front and rear. I'd rather spend that money on SS lines, H6 rear brakes (2 piston front/1 piston rear like stock 02-05 US WRXs), and flushing the original fluid 100% out.
Which one did you get? Stoptech Street, Sport, or Powerstop?

I strongly recommend Carbotech - AX-6.
Excellent bite, and will even hold up to some amateur track duty.
