Alternative for 6 piston Brembo pad (Low Dust)

[Jinx]

Ive searched this forum and others, and I come up short on information. Their are plently of expensive performance pads for the 15" Brembo pads, but not much in the arena for OEM replacements that yield low dust.

In my search, mostly in GT500 specific forum, lots of people have thrown in their ideas what could fit that description of a pad. On one forum, they state to use Autozone's Duralast Gold Part# DG1001, (and Autozone list that for a 2013 GT500) but that seems to be only for the 4 piston brembos. If search further on Autozone's site, changing my "car" to a Boss 302 * a car only option was 4 piston brembo) it will net a different part number. And then to add more confusion.....change your "car" to a 2014 GT500 (car with the exact same brakes as 2014) it will net a different part number, DG1666. All different prices.

Any help?

EDIT# Did more reading, HAWK has pads that they have available at a good price and are ceramic (to cut down on dust and noise), but they are 1/4" shorter than the OEM pad, meaning less rotor contact; but apparently still fits. They use this pad on Lexus ISFs apparently.

Looks like Carbotech has all their compounds available for the 6-piston calipers. I've been happy with the performance and dust on the 1521 Bobcats.

I am using the DG1001 for daily driver use. I am pleased with them... no noise, stops well, and ZERO brake dust.

Not sure what the 6 piston equivalent would be.

Wow, carbontech is pricey, guess I'll stick with the short hawk pads for the time being. :/
