source for AP Racing BBK pads

[nsx1164]

Wanted to share an alternative source for brake pads for the AP Racing FRONT caliper (these are are sold by RM Racing as part of their RM Big Brake Kit).

I can get pad fitments with Porterfield R4S (and R4, R4E race applications) as well as Hawk (Blue, others).

Others can also get them with Performance Friction and Carbotech Panther compounds.

Send me a private email, or reply to this thread if interested.

NOTE:
(1) these are NOT the same as the OE pads that Randy sells for the BBK. His pads are great - but supply is low (or slow, depending on your perspective), and the price is kinda high. Besides, its always great to have alternative sources IMHO.
(2) these are only for the FRONT Caliper. We can get matching REAR caliper fitments, but these are more easy to find, as its the OE NSX rear caliper: lots of choices there
