Default PBR Big Brake upgrade pads.

Hi there .

I could be possibly asking a stupid question but I dont know the answer too it.

I have the pbr big grake upgrade on my ba falcon. It has the twin piston front calipers and the single at the rear.

It is time for me to get some new brake pads on the front but dont know if only the pbr pads fit the calipers or do I have the option of fitting different brand pads on them. eg Bendix, ferodo, green stuff ect...

If I do have the option what would you recommend me getting. I want somthing with minnimal dust but can handle some punishment. Im a spirited driver and go to the drags often so I want to make it stop.


Cheers

Finally i get to offer some wisdom (lol) and here it goes
A wise man once told me "the only stupid question is the one not asked "
You can buy any brand of brake pad you want and the bendix number is 7599 and they start from about $70 and go up to $380 for a set of DS2500 street/track pads.
