Question Brake pads and bleeders question

Hawk HPS pads: Are they worth the $ for a daily driver?

Brake bleeders: What is the thread size for the brake bleeders that are on the calipers on a 1994 Z? metric or SAE. Size , please.

Thanks

Hawk HPS pads dust like crazy and squeal after awhile . For street use? Go with ceramics (Hawk makes ceramics I believe? ) or any good quality aftermarket brand. Just my $.02.

And FWIW, I've raced on a road course with STREET ceramic pads, and done ok . They're not "inadequate" by any means .

Oh, and did I mention, they keep your wheels nice and clean, and don't squeal?
