It would seem you cut down pad area by a large percentage using four pads per caliper. What's the idea there? Controlling pad taper or something?

We use four pads in this setup so there is one pad individual to each piston. This creates a more even pressure distribution and more of the pad is covered by piston area for increased stopping power. It also creates more even pad wear.

Brakes or stickers?

The brakes look very impressive; are the pads for these PF calipers just from PF or do other manufacturers make pads as well?

I've been bouncing around the idea of a brake upgrade for the car next season, but the OEM brembos have been pretty stout!

When are you guys going to start making rear stock replacements for evo IX's? I have your fronts and they work WONDERS, I have been wanting a rear set forever.
