I'll throw another pad into the mix here that I've had
great experiences with the Porterfield R4S on my
Integra Type R.  Good heat range (safe when cold),
spectactular when hot, excellent pedal feel.  A great
auto-x pad.  A little pricey, but worth it, IMO.

For an expert opinion, you might try calling or
emailing Andie for Carbotech Engineering.  He's
exceptionally knowledgeable about brake pads and can
help you make the right choice.

What is the general opinion on brake pads?  Which one
work the best in autox?  I do not need compromise,
since I use the car (3rd gen Rx7 - weight approx.
3,800 lb, ABS equipped) exclusively to autox.  I have
been using stock Mazda pads so far and I think they
work well but I have no experience with alternate pads
and cannot make comparison.  I have been hearing 
and reading about Hawk HPS Plus or Black, or EDS green
stuff, etc.  So, what is the opinion of the more
experienced drivers of the list?  Thanks.

Sandro
