Hi all. Getting tired of not getting the correct parts for this car. I have looked on the Hawk site and many others even this one. Can someone please tell me:
1. Hawk HPS 5.0 has better stopping power than HPS?
2. If so what are the part numbers for the front pads?
3. What are the part numbers of the different manufacturers for SS brake lines?
I run into problems with the upgraded S brakes models pf pads and lines. Can someone please help?

Thanks!

I'm assuming your car is a sedan

Front brake Pads:

HPS: HB387F.547
HP 5.0: I'm not sure if they make them for this size for the fronts, I couldn't find it

Brake lines:

STOPTECH 95042012 (Front)
STOPTECH 95042503 (Rear)

If you have a coupe, the X model brakes may be different depending on the year

Thanks Hashim. I do have a sedan and it should be the same a base coupe. I did end up getting the same stoptech front lines from RockAuto. I can't find any 5.0 for the fronts. This thing doesn't stop well with these weak base brakes.

Glad you got them sorted out. I was never a huge fan of the base brakes but the SS lines did wonders for pedal feel and really weren't that bad with them for daily driving except they tend to fade quickly after repeated hard stops (i.e. multi hour commuting in on/off traffic jams) When I had the base brakes I used the EBC Red pads...when I went to Akebonos I went to Yellows and eventually to blues...They dust like crazy but I don't care I love how aggressively they stop...if the stainless lines still leaves you wanting maybe give another brand a try.. good luck!
