Brake pads EBC or Bosch
I ran the EBC BlueStuff NDX. They are a great track pad but also didn’t feel like a track pad when driving on the street. They have decent cold bite and we’re very quiet for me.
I replaced my Mk6 stock pads with EBC RedStuff and love them (better feel under hard braking and practically no dust).
I bought EBC BlueStuff pads. Amazing on track and they don’t feel like track pads on the street.
I swapped out to EBC pads and rotors. And won't go back to OEM.
Running red stuff pads and slotted EBC rotors on my daily. Stops fast enough to peel your face off. No noise now that I've rebuilt the calipers and made sure that everything is able to move properly.
I've been doing my own brake job for a while and have used Bosch QuietCast rotors and Bosch QuietCast Premium Disc brake pads, both purchased from Amazon. No complaints.
Fresh front brakes, Zimmerman blanks with EBC Bluestuff, hopefully these do better than the yellows. Pedal feel with the Endless fluid was consistent as well.
Just replaced all four brake pads and rotors on my 2018 MZ3 hatch with 46,000 miles. Used Bosch quiet cast brake pads and rotors. Paid around $350 for parts and took me around three hours.
They're a great fast street pad. I liked them for daily use and the occasional Pass or backroad run but they're just not great for a track day. They get chewed up fairly quick and overheat quickly as well.
I bought and installed EBC red stuff pads on my stoptech slotted rotors. I also have stainless steel brake lines too. I've had several techs tell me my brakes are fine, but I literally can push the brake pedal to the floor in some cases, including the highway. It stays like that for a while too as I'll be driving at 60+ mph, go to stop and it has a long bit of travel. I will even pump up the brake pedal while at red lights and stop signs just to get some more bite but I feel like I might fuck up the master cylinder doing this enough. The fluid was flushed less than 6 months ago, but I feel like I need to switch to a better pad if this is actually the issue. I felt like my ABS wasn't even going off at one point due to these pads, or that I had some trapped air in my lines.
