Ebc Red Stuff. They are a little milder than Yellow but still high performance. I can get a 20 min track session with limited fade. Although once I forgot to turn stability control off and they faded very badly after about 10 min. Less dusty than stock setup.

Pros: high performance, limited fade, less dusty
Cons: faded badly with stability control on
Vehicle: Ford Fiesta

I used Corrado G60 hubs (still retaining 4x100 lug pattern) Corrado 4-wheel ABS system paired to adapters to run 11.8" 4piston Mercedes Benz front brakes with Yellowstuff EBC race compound pads and 10.2" rear discs with Hawk HPS pads. This brake configuration to mass ratio was already an upgrade on the 4800# donor car, here they are absolutely insane on a sub 3000# Mk1 Cabriolet.

Pros: insane stopping power
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Agree w/ all above especially EBC red pads. I put in performance rotors (blank, not drilled or slotted though) but not necessary. Just wanted a clean slate for the pads. But the final piece of the puzzle is to run higher performance tires.

Pros: performance rotors

My budget brake setup was getting EBC slotted rotors front and rear, but getting 286mm rear rotors, you can install them by using volkswagen CC rear caliper brackets if your car has 272mm stock rear rotors. I also have EBC red stuff pads all around, they do get pretty dusty though.

Pros: works great, cheap upgrade
Cons: pretty dusty
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I've always been a big fan of EBC pads since I did them on a 98 GLX I had. I actually recommend them to people who want something a bit more aggressive but don't want a race pad.

Pros: more aggressive

I put about 65 minutes of track time on my EBC Yellows. The seemed to hold up Okay. I sent some pictures to EBC they said they got really hot and I should consider brake cooling options.

Pros: held up okay
Cons: got really hot

I wouldn't; it could throw off braking performance ... like now your rear pads bite harder than your front. Plus your front do most of the work.

Cons: unbalanced braking
