    There is no single answer to that question.  Intended usage and driving style need to be considered, dust and noise etc.
     
    Is it a track car or a road car as the ideal choice would be entirely different

    Gdub is exactly correct. Either post what you are going to be using the car for or contact a brake specialist. In QLD you could contact Steve Williams at WRS, 07 5502 3636. He, like me, is an agent for a lot of brands including Ferodo, Pagid, Hawk, Endless and Brembo.
    Cheers, David.
