I have never installed the dampeners and in FACT have a full set in a box that went unused from the last time I changed my pads and stupidly ordered.

As long as you check your brakes REGULARLY them you don't need them but is nice to ahve them as a safety measure "in case" you forget.

I have virtually no noise and I like being able to change pads quickly before track days.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I am going to go with Hawk HPS, and I did a search, but what are your guys feelings on the vibration dampeners and wear sensors??
I don't track the car currently(Have only had it for a lil more than a month), but i would like to do 1 or 2 driving events in the next year...
I have no problems changing pads for the track...
I do not want squeel on the street though...
Can i reuse my dampeners on my car( i have them right?) and what needs to be done to fit the wear sensors?
Let me know the real world opinions guys, thanks!

The Hawk HPS will be fine for the street. I use them for both street and track events. You really won't stop the car faster with race pads. It's only the race pads don't absorb as much heat so when you're going lap after lap after lap it makes a difference because they will be working better. But for DE events they are more than adequate.
You're going to have to drill a hole in the pad to put the sensors in. I just zip tied them out of the way but still connected so the light stays off. I'd just drill a small hole in the pad and reinstall them. The vibration dampers I threw away. I don't see the point but you might want to keep them if you ever go back to the stock pads.
I hope this helps, if you have any questions let me know.
I have never installed the dampeners and in FACT have a full set in a box that went unused from the last time I changed my pads and stupidly ordered. But, in all fairness, I wanted to see if I was ok without them first and if I wanted them I would have them on hand. I have virtually no noise and I like being able to change pads quickly before track days. With them installed, PITA to remove the pads.
Sensors? As long as you check your brakes REGULARLY them you don't need them but is nice to ahve them as a safety measure "in case" you forget. Again, unless you track quite often, then don't risk being without them installed. Easy to drill a hole for them in the new aftermarket pads.
I think i will forget about the sensors...And if the pads become noisy, i will isntall the dampeners, but not untill then...
I am in tune with my car enough to know when my brakes are going...
Thanks guys!
