Seems weird, no?
Codes are about a year old, still on stock fluid. Have some Motul 5.1 that I'm going to put in there tonight which should help. The brakes have considerably more power now, but at the end of a really steep, ~3 minute run, they start fading.
I suppose it makes sense that the organic stock pads would isolate heat to the rotor a bit more, and metallic pads would transfer it to the caliper more. So I suppose that's what's happening? However, I've never heard of this happening before, and cannot find anyone reporting this in my searches.
EDIT: Also, I surface sanded my rotors with 220 grit to remove any embedded organic pad material, so I don't think its any kind of interplay there.
