Alrighty... I recall someone asking me to review Intima Type-D pads, so having the chance to punish the car just this Monday I can safely say these pads hold up very well and are very progressive when compared to the likes of my old Project MU HC800.
However, just a small caveat, I've moved from stock R33 calipers with Project MU HC800 to 350Z Brembo with Intima Type-D, however the rears are still running Project Mu HC800 with 4mm of pad left (which were destroyed by the end of the day)
First of all, the Intima pads are rating a little higher than the Project MU HC800 (0 to 700 degrees) vs. Type-D (250 to 850). They might be rated at 250 starting point, however with street use they seem to pull up fine. Felt very normal, similar to running normal street pads such as Intima SR or Project Mu NS400, etc.
Track: Wakefield Park
Ambient Temp: 12~15 degrees
Track Conditions: Dry/Clean
Tyres: 255/40/17 Nitto NT01
Boat: R33 GTS-t, no aero, ~340kW on the day (boost turned down from 1.7bar to 1.4bar)
I'll keep it in dot points, being male it's easier to read:
Pads don't need much heat to get them to boogie compared to the HC800+
After turn 2, the pads are ready to be used
Pads are much more progressive, not on/off like the HC800+
They can be pre-loaded and stomped on and they pull up very well
Fade is quite progressive too, will start to fade approximately 6 laps, note: running Project Mu HC800 Rears with 4mm of pad left also I'm hitting over 200km/h down the main straight.
After fade, 1/2 a cool down lap is only required before brakes are back to 60~80% capacity
In conclusion, without any real technical data I highly rate them over Project Mu HC800 however Project Mu offer a Club Racer pad which would be a proper comparison to the Initma Type-D.
