I just called up HAWK to see if they will make an HP+ since they make an HPS for that pad. He said it would take an order of about 12 sets. I'd be down to buy 2 or 3 to have until I get sick of 11.75" Brakes. I've got a set of Firm Feel Carbon Metallic and I'd like to have more options. I've got no idea of pricing yet. The HPS is priced around $60. http://www.hawkperformance.com/performance/hpplus.phpLet me know if anyone would like to go in on this. Thanks, Alex

They said that their engineering department can't do it.
Any particular reason? Still not enough sets for a run?

Porterfield makes custom brake pads. Call them up and see what they can do. Also- they may already have a pad for the 11.75 caliper in one of their in-house compounds. http://porterfield-brakes.com/categories/shop/Custom+Brake+Pads.html

That's unfortunate, but thank you for your efforts on our behalf.

I called them right after Hawk said no. Waiting on a call back or email.
Alex, did you ever get any more info on this?
No, I gave up. I've got a set of the HPS for back up until I get a set of Dr. Diff Brakes. I'll have to step up to a different caliper to get a good pad. Sad, but true.
