Brembo HPS issue

[Dilley]

I have 00R style brembos off a fiat 20v turbo coupe, they work perfectly with slight modification, with a set of Hawk HPS pads, centric rotors, ss lines and ATE super blue fluid. Everything works flawlessly until I start getting in the brakes hard a few times and then smoke comes from that area the car feels like the pads are siezed to the rotors. Once I drive it and break them free they go back to some what normal feeling. Am I being to hard on the HPS's? Did i happen to install something wrong?
Any insight is appreciated.

What kind of rotors are you using? Where the pads properly bedded to the rotor?

Centric blanks as I stated and yes the pads were bedded to the rotor doing hard 80-40mph braking 10 times

Oops... Missed that. Pull the wheels off and inspect the pads and rotors. I would focus on looking for a leaking seal that would cause brake fluid to pass.

How would fluid leaking cause the pads to feel like they seized to the rotor?
