pad upgrade
Looking at Mintex 1144s on rallydesign but struggling to figure out which ones? I'm running the MK factory spec of the wilwood caliper front and
standard caliper rear. Are these the ones? What about upgrading the rear caliper too?

Also are any of these any good?

Luke,
In my limited experience, most comments I've seen re' Sevenesque cars in general refer to them being 'overbraked' rather than
in need of an upgrade. You may be going quickly, and I realise kinetic energy is a product of V squared and half the mass (5-600kg), but for road use
surely the standard set up's man enough?

It's to reduce brake pedal pressure on track without extending pedal travel. I want a lighter pedal to make heel and toeing easier-while getting
better at it in this car it's difficult clodding the brake pedal currently while delicately blipping the throttle pedal. Indeed a friends r1
Indy with stock calipers currently stops better with standard sierra brakes and greenstuff pads, so it definitely can be improved-just need to know
which specific pad fits the wilwood caliper, I'd like to try mintex and greenstuff...
