Volkswagen parts reviews

I'm running Ferodo DS2000 pads and Zimmerman crossdrilleds on my Corrado. I just did my first track event last weekend and my rotors are warped. The pads worked very well on the track, no brake fade at all. This was with (3) 20 min sessions on a 2 mile road course. They do create a lot of red brake dust so that may be a factor for street use. I would stay away from Zimmerman rotors. I drove around trying to cool the car down after every session and they still warped. They are more "show than go". I was told to stick with ATE or Brembo rotors by some experienced racers.

I got Mintex pads from Autotech for my 97 Jetta 2.0 in Jan. I do a fair amount of city driving and drive the car kind of hard all the way around. Mintex pads worked great with almost no dust and were much better in the rain. (stock pads sucked in the rain) I only had them on the car for 5K then car got wrecked but I plan to get them for the new one..
