Pads for Sport Package Daily and Track with OEM rotors

nabenson · 05-17-2012, 06:42 PM

I use EBC Yellow. They dust more than OEM, and sometimes make a little noise when they are cold but otherwise work well on the street and are pretty good on the track. They are also fairly inexpensive.

For track use the carbotech xp12 up front and either the xp10 or xp12 at the rear depending on how much rear brake you want.

for street the carbotech 1521 are much better than the stock pads, but will not handle continuous lapping at the track without overheating.

here is a link to the different carbotech compounds

There are some bad posts about the EBC yellow on track. Im not interested in inexpensive solutions for my safety at least.

What about project mu?

I have the B-specs -- I like them. A bit squeally occasionally when cold, otherwise much better bite than OEM and low dust.

Also, if you haven't already done it, I highly recommend getting SS brake lines. That makes a really noticeable difference in braking performance.
