Hi, was wondering what the best brake pads for street use would be to suit R33 GTS?

I've been looking at Bendix and EBC, also Intima. Still not sure on what ones won't eat my brakes up and last longest with nice braking strength

Depends on what you have in the front. If you do not know what you have in the front, do not buy tricky dicky rear pads. Just get OEM equivalent (or just the OEM pad, which work fine). If you know that you have mildly better pads on the front, then put Bendix Ultimate or similar on the front. If you have shit hot pads on the front, then you can consider shit hod pads for the rear as well.

QFM HPX or Remsa (Remsa pad sits inbetween HPX and A1RM) for a purely street driven car, QFM A1RM for a car that sees light track work, check GSL Rallysport's subsection on here.

Whatever you have in the front, put them in the rear.

No point having a lesser pad upfront, and a better in the rear.

If you drive the car hard and get the brakes hot, you'll run the chance of the rear out-braking the front and car coming around on you.

LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
