i use yellowstuff pads, front and rear dave
I think EBC are overrated... IMHO



Most the time EBC pads need to be at temperature to work properly, and they eat your discs...

A google search will bring up other peoples reviews...
I'm enjoying a set of yellowstuffs, but that was coming from redstuffs.

i prefer the yellowstuff over my last set of ds2500's
I recently ordered yellow stuff (think they work good even when cold). I have heard not the best for close (last moment) braking for continous use. But then again alot of people have their own preferences. I'm just testing out what suits me :)
Mine's a daily drive road car, so can't comment on track use. Perfect even from cold.
I am using redstuffs on my R34 and so far I really like them. Only thing I don´t like too much is that they´re pretty noisy, but braking performance is ace. Road and track.
i had red stuff on my 34 when warm there fantastic, when cold your better off praying for somthing else to stop you that isnt a brick wall :rofl:
might try the yellow stuff ones
I have been running RED DOT Racing own discs (grooved) and a set of their fast road pads with no problems.

Changed my front pads 6 months ago to Yellowstuff and they work really well for me (daily driver fast road use). Bought a set of rear yellowstuff this month thinkin i need em and still got loads left on the Red Dot rears.
Red or yellow will be fine, didn't notice any worse braking from cold even against std pads.

I'll be going with a set of these once my redstuffs are done with. My mates got the XP10s in his evo9 and the stopping power is unbelievable.

They'll also make pads up if your application isn't listed.

Same here.

I am surprised to read about Marks experience with the red stuffs.
I get the pads from conceptua there about 30 quid delivered changed the brake fluid and your be sorted and save a fortune.

Never had a problem even used them on the track once and at the pod.
yellow stuff on the front of mine and they work spot on even when cold, ive previously used mintex and dont rate them one bit (too squeekey)
