Stupid Question
 

I've been looking for break pad upgrades like half the Z owers here...

Looked at multiple websites and don't see any different selections for sport pkg vs base. Think I like the Carbotech, either XP10/XP8 or XP8/XP8 setup. I had carbotech in my 69Vette and they were awesome except I don't know what compound they were. Put about 120 minutes of track time on them and about 60k miles. Looked like the rotor was going to go first but still had a bunch of pad material when I sold the car in preparation for the Z. Only squeeked once in a while but liked to be warmed up a bit.

Here's the stupid question... Are the break pads the same size on the sport brakes vs the standard? Am I missing something here?

i am 100% sure akebono pads are much bigger than the base brakes and they are built differently...

That's what I would think. Thanks!

way different
