Just looked up the Akebono. Interestingly a 9-3 owner on tirerack had this to say:
>> 'Pedal effort is slightly higher than stock after 600 miles, but there is no more aggressive brake "bite" or "grab" I experienced at lower speeds with stock pads.'
Not sure exactly what they mean by the above exactly but I know when I replace my 9-5 pads I'll actually be looking to see if I can get more initial "bite" as I don't like the lack of it with my current OE pads. Actually not sure if it is the pads, braking system, or both both but I'll be looking for the "crisp" as Erik919kt calls it and what I think of as strong bite and linear feel more like my old 900.
