Brake pads EBC or ATE

I had oem pads then changed to ebc yellow stuff pads, huge a world of difference and I can’t recommend it enough but avoid the grooved disks from ebc as you get mad vibration sounds under heavy braking

Get OE blank rotors, a set of your preferred pads and some good high temp brake fluid. (I really like EBC yellow stuff for daily, autocross, and light track stuff.) Unless you're really going hard on the track, there's not a real need for slotted or drilled. Even when I did hard track stuff I still just rocked the blank rotors most of the time. They still held up well and were cheaper to replace too.

Regular carbon ceramic brake pads, from Ate and I presume also Brembo, are better than normal pads. Same stopping power but much less heat generation and brake dust.

I went with EBC drilled and grooved with yellowstuff pads I think. Highly recommended

I’m rocking EBC RedStuff and I love them.

These are amazing pads - really big upgrade in stopping power. And as others mentioned, it’s per pair. So one of each. Tdotperformance is reliable, I use it specifically for pads and rotors for not just my vt but other cars I have worked on. Great service and vehicle confirmation.

The yellow stuff pads are also Canadian winter friend. They have similar biting power to the reds but better for cold bite. Only downfall with the yellows is brake dust is fairly high. My wheels get very dirty. High maintenance for cleanliness.

I have EBC slotted rotors and the green pads. Way better than stock. Will probably go with red when these wear down cause they claim to produce less dust.

The Brembo pads from euro’s are basically fakes. They’re an extreamly basic pad no different to Mann etc. I run EBC yellow stuff in my scooby which is my daily and they’re shit hot once abit warned up. But they do give off a fuck load of brake dust.

I hate EBC. People recommended their pads for dual duty track and daily. Lol they’re not good at all. Hawk, Ferodo, and Endless over EBC any day of the damn week.

I’ve driven roughly 150 miles and I’ve done EBC’s suggested bed in process. But they’re still squealing when I’m coasting from 0-40mph. The squealing sounds like the wear indicator rubbing on the rotor, but they’re brand new and nowhere close to the rotor. Do they take longer to bed in? The squealing is really high pitched and annoying
