Planning a trip with the nova to the nurburgring in september, so getting a few spares etc sorted.
Was going to buy some cheap pads (or another set of EBC greenstuff ones, which i currently use, and have been impressed with) incase i cook them (long drive home for me)
But it probably makes more sense to get a slightly more track orientated pad (but not too hard a compound that cant be used for the road) and bed it in over the next month, and use that at the ring (with the greenstuff as back up)
Mintex 1155 were recomended, but i dont think these are made anymore?
The nova competion build manual recomends, Ferodo 2459 (no longer made) or slightly softer 3466 (which seems to have been replaced with DS2500 these days)
Anybody use the 16v setup on track and road, and can recomend an upgraded pad?
Happy with my 16v setup, for the time being, so no "just get 4pots" type replies please, Cheers
