I think someone posted this before and said it cost something like 200. I think that's for rear but I'm not too sure.

i wouldnt track OEM pads, you can cook them easily tracking the car, wait for tracking pads

just don't brake and take every corner with full speed

you can most certainly track the OEM pads. Sure they wont perform as good as a set of aftermarket "tracking" (LOL) pads but thats no reason to stay home.

agreed

Yup. Use the paddle shifters and use compression braking to help.

They are between $60-80.

I'm not sure if you have the sport package or not but if you do, you have to realize that 13.2" rotors are pretty much unheard of for stock brakes in a passenger car. You should have adequate heat capacity.

that's it? I swear someone post 200 few weeks ago.

Is this price from dealer and is it for the rear or front?
what is the price different between front and rear??

Did you consider calling the dealer?

sport package or no sport pacakge the IS350 comes with the same brakes. the IS250 comes with the smaller brakes and calipers.

Depending on what type of track you're going to, or what competition you'll be competing in, I'd at least change the brake fluid. If you're not abusing the brakes, they should be fine, but brakes designed for street use on cars like this rarely have the ability to disipitate heat the way a dedicated brake setup for the track could. What type of racing do you plan on doing?
