I am looking to order a set of brake pads for my jdm 92 fd (R1 model) and I was looking to hawk for a set of their HP Plus pads.

However when I look for pads it asks me if I have standard suspension or electronic adjustment suspenion. If I go with standard suspension I can only find the pads for the rear but if I go with the electronic I can get both from and rear pads.

So here is my question. Is there that big of a change between the electronic suspension and the standard?
Dose it warrant me worring about getting stuff that may not work since I dont have the electonic?
Or is everything the same with the brakes and I should order the pads?

As stated before my car is a JDM 92 FD (R1 model)

Thanks for your time and responses.

 

I would recommend Carbotech AX6 if you are looking for a street/autox pad:

Expensive, but a good pad. If you want something a little cheaper, Bonez Stage I:

Ok but that dosen't answer my question about the suspension. I just want to know if there was a difference between brakes setups on the electronic and the standard.

 

There was no electronic suspension for the FD3S.

 

Ok, thanks for the info/time.

 

Usually that reference to electronic suspension is related to the FC - specifically the GXL 'electronic' suspension.

Try searching for pads for 93-95 RX7s to get the right parts.

 

I was searching from hawk because I have a local guy that can get me a good price and he runs hawks on his dd/weekend autocross car and loves them.

When I was on their site thou and put in standard suspension (Because I never knew of an fd with electronic) it only came up with the rears.

I than went to another website (forgot which one) and say that they did have front pads for an fd but they were under the electronic suspension I thought it would be a good idea to ask before I buy and find out they don't work.

So thanks again for everyone who helped me out with this question.
