I've been researching brake pads for my SC, and one problem I've always had with the 93-97 rear calipers is that there are few performance pads available. At EBC's website, though, I see that the pads for these calilpers supposedly interchange with the 01-02 Viper GTS.
Here's a diagram of the EBC pad:
Now, I'm not really a fan of EBC pads, but if our pads interchange with the Viper, that's great news, because there are some good pads available for that car. However, other pad makers don't seem to agree on the pads interchanging. For example, here's a diagram of Hawk's Viper pad, which supposedly interchanges with DEW98 cars, but not MN12s:
You can see that there seems to be a bit of extra backing material compared to the EBC pad. So I'm wondering if this pad can be modified slightly to fit the later MN12 rear calipers.
