Brake pads Brembo or EBC

The inability to easily modulate light braking is the main reason I swapped in some EBC Redstuff pads. Very linear and better ultimate braking. You couldn't pay me to go back to the stock pads.

With EBC Yellowstuff Pads and Motul Fluid I was fade-free during multiple 25 minute sessions at my local 2.5 mile track. My front brake rotors read a temp of 650 degrees at the end of each session with ambient air temp of about 85 degrees.

I have Brembo front pads. Feel very OEM but with a modest decrease in brake dust.

Here's what I did at 30k miles as the originals had faded badly StopTech slotted rotor with EBC redstuff pad - I'm certain you'll get a thousand recommendations on better stuff. Love, love, love these brakes. Very little dust.

But I will say the pads are great, they stop well, they never squeak...but man my iron-x budget is going fast.

I went from OEM to ebc yellow stuff to combat brake fade on the track. I feel a bite difference on the road for sure. If you don’t mind a bit of squeak, the ebc brakes are good.

I also upgraded brakes to Optimal brand e-cote rotors and EBC Red street/performance pads. A nice improvement in brake feel and the new rotors look better, but hardly necessary.

Calipers cleaned up with new EBC pads, as well as a complete fluid flush.

I went EBC red stuff with slotted single piece rotors. They are okay, but not more than that. I pretty regularly drive them to fade on the street (I live in a very lightly populated rural area with lots of twisty roads).

EBC are complete trash sorry. Street only use they are fine. Anything more than mild track use and they will fall apart. Carbotech xp8 would be your best option. Hawk black would be a good alternative.
