Brake pads Carbotech or OEM Toyota

Carbotech Brake pads

I'm liking the Carbotech 1521 pads for their better heat tolerance and modulation over OEM pads, though I feel light initial bite is slightly less.

Pros: better heat tolerance, good modulation
Cons: light initial bite
Vehicle: Acura Integra
Part number: 1521

Low dust brake pads. On my F87, I use Carbotech 1521. Slight decrease in initial brake bite, significant decrease in dust.

Pros: significant decrease in dust
Cons: slight decrease in bite

I track a WRX and have used XP12's in the front and XP10's in the rear. They work very well. IMO Carbotechs are one of the best for the track

Pros: work very well, one of the best

I ran xp10s on a Jetta with no issues. They got really really hot, but no fade or loss of pressure. It was so hot it melted the tabs that held the plastic center cap on my wheel.

Pros: no issues, worked great, no fade or loss of pressure
Cons: got really hot, melted wheel center cap tabs

I use carbotech xp8s. Dtc 60 or 70s would also be a good choice. Be warned through track pads driven on the street will accelerate rotor wear. I hated the Ferodo ds2500s when cold.

Cons: accelerates rotor wear
