Brake pads EBC or ATE
The steel lines are great addition. The EBC pads add significant bite, but I did warp my stock rotor with a full weekend at Road Atlanta. Put a Galfer rotor on there.
I just changed my oem rear pads to them after 160,000km and it works well without any vibrations.
During this time I also replaced the brake pads with oem ATE one’s (low dust) and oem brake fluid flush.
I’m now 500 miles into the EBC Redstuff brake pads I recently installed. It was kind of dicey at first, like “did I make a bad move?” dicey. Very rough stopping in the first 50 miles, then just mildly rough for another 150 or so. The good news is that stopping is buttery smooth now that the pads are fully bedded in. Just smooth as silk.
I went with ebc green as red was overkill for red is less dust and heavier cars from my understanding. The greens do me just fine as i dont beat my vb from point a to point b all the time.
Yellow stuff. If you don't track they're the better value. Less dust on your wheels, they'll perform in the cold better
I got red EBC performance brakes for like $150. Installed myself. No shaking. Handles very well. Fits perfect.
Replaced the rotors and went with EBC yellow stuff pads. They don't look quite that bad, but 2 years later they're hardly looking like clean swept rotor surfaces.
Yes. Ebc yellows completely failed for me on the 3rd lap.
I tried them one time on my track car and they were terrible.
