but what are you doing with the car? street only/street and light track/full on racing.

if you can afford endless there are plenty of other options available.

Car is use mainly for track (drift and time attack no racing yet) however it still gets driven on the street so I can't use a full race pad.

Endless make a carbon ceramic pad which is a street/track pad I was looking at getting

Did some further looking and found that Endless make pads to suit the CP5200 Caliper;

Most likely look at getting the CCRg pads. however they do make some circuit pads to suit as well S55G・ME22・ME20・N35S; will have to look into this some more

Not knowing what tyres you run, what rotors, and what weight of the car is etc. I would think CCX may do the job and nowhere near as noisy or hard on rotors as the CC-R

R33 gts-t 1450kg last time i weight it. Potenza RE001R, Endless 330 slotted disc, N1 brake master

Perfect. Get the A1RM. It's going to be miles cheaper than anything else, and it performs. I've won a state rallying title on it, and there's PLENTY of guys running it as a track and daily pad in some quick machinery. Latest feedback:

currently im running rda slotted rotors all round with gfm a1rm's up front, qfm hpx's out back, and penrite syn 600 fluid. so far so good. front pads have lasted 2 track days (at mallala, which is notoriously hard on brakes), and 5,000ish kays of street driving with more than half of that in the hills. no problems with fade or excessive wear on the rotors

Went to Sandown today, running A1RM front and HPX rear, TRW600F fluid, stock discs front and rear.

My tyres are overheating before the brakes. Even then the fluid is overheating before the pads. They are phenomenal I was able to pull up hard after the long straights for 2 hot laps before I had to back off because the tyres were squirming.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
