5AT A-Spec Brake Pad Upgrade
Hey guys has anyone upgraded to the A-Spec brake pads for the 5AT? I saw a set on ebay and they look like a worthy upgrade. Anyone actually upgraded? Any difference in stopping power?

Have done many aftermarket pads upgrades on past cars I doubt you will even notice the difference.
I think if your brain wants to notice a difference you will.

I've had good luck with Raybestos QS pads on my performance car. Nice balance of bite yet they don't rip the crap out of your rotors. Next to no dust either.
