Spec Boxster brake pad questions

Hey Guys - school me please on brake pad options/combinations for my Spec Car build.

I thought I'd get some ideas a few weeks ago at Hallett with the Boxstoberfast Spec races, but after looking at 25 cars and talking to people, it seemed like I have about 30 options to choose from off of 25 cars...

Here's where I'm sitting with my braking system:

Zimmerman cross-drilled rotors, front and rear
Braided stainless steel brake hoses
GT-3 front cooling ducts
80mm wheel studs x all four corners

I've had recommendations of Pagid yellow/front and black/rear, and Hawk HP Plus on all four corners.

Any other recommendations/ideas for pads and overall brake system build?

Here's the mandatory pictures of the car on the trailer on the way home from Jon's (78F350) home, and sitting in my drive as I'm cleaning carpet and sound deadening glue out of the tub, stripping some more interior items and starting to clean up the wiring.

Now begins the build and the slippery slope into the abyss. All comments, help, and critiques as I move forward in the build process are gladly accepted, and I'll even listen to and incorporate some of them.

More on the cars background (1999) and the planned adventure in future posts.

Thanks!

Rick
