11.75 rotors and viper calipers - 06/03/14 07:01 AM
Who's running this, in what environment and what pads are you running? Are you satisfied? The new kit with the c body rotor is a nice touch.

I'm running it with Hawk HT-10's on the front and the Cobra kit with Hawk Blue's in the rear.
I've had no problems, but the HT-10's are very aggressive for the street and dust like crazy.

next time run the portfield RS, I find their better than hawk's without all the brake dust

Doctor Diff sells a light weight, aluminum adapter to bolt them right on.

Hawk's or Porterfields?
I have never had good luck with Porterfields. I've tried a couple compounds and have just hated them. I had one set disintegrate at the first track day and ended up driving home using the e-brake.

You need a pad for any viper up to 2002.

Porterfields. The EBC yellows while they stop ok cold they work much better hot. Dust is OK with them though I find? Just looking ( if it exists?) for something that works well both hot and cold? Autox and street duty using manual brakes, maybe step up to hydroboost at some point?

I don't like the Hawk HPS, worthless at the track in my opinion.
I did have a set of EBC Blue on my Challenger that I liked. They were fine on the street, worked well at the track and lasted quite some time. Probably put a couple track days and 10k street miles on them before I sold the car.
My Satellite has manual brakes and it works fine with the aggressive pads. I don't see any reason to put hydroboost on a car.

I run HPS's around for the street and EBC Yellow for the track along with Hydraboost. All good here.
If you are going to track the car, then just get something that fits your budget.

Thanks for the replies, do you run the EBC yellow on the back too?

Nope. I keep the HPS's on the back, as I dial a bunch of rear brake out of the car anyway. Either way, they hold up fine for me.
