Default Pads for BA

Hey guys,
I bought a set of RDA slotted rotors off you a while ago, and ran them on the AU. It was a BA setup. I now have had them machined and on the BA.
I was using the RDA extreme pads that I bought, I found them good when they were warm, but really horrible when cold, almost to the point of not being able to get the car to stop the first time.
I want to know if you have any other reccomendations for pads, as my old ones are shagged. I want them to be good around the mountains, but mostly for everyday use. The ones that came with the BA give up after 10km of corners, which is no good for me.
Would something like Bendix advanced be a good choice? If so, or if you have any other reccomendations, can you give me a price, including delivery to 4127.
Thanks.
Josh


PS. This is just for Fronts as well.

Hi mate i would try the DS Performance pads before bendix or anything as these will work very well.The pads are $200 delivered a set but are excellent to stop with and no fade.If you want a pad that has no dust then the HPX pads will be good at $95 a set but i think from your driving style they may still fade.
