RYANVR6 2 Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Finally getting round to fitting bigger brakes on the car but unsure which disks and pads would make a good combo without costing the earth. I was looking at EBC ultimax disks and yellow stuff pads but heard the pads are crap.Any suggestions or input will be greatly appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites
Swivelonit 119 Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I used Yellow stuff pads, they were good imo, I have done three track days and one how fast at Bedford, pads were good, I used them in combination with standard discs and my braking point was a lot later than some of the other same cars on different pads. I have bought Ferodo DS 2500 to go on the Golf, these were twice the price of Yellow stuff but I really can't see them being twice the pad.... Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I have used yellows on my old VR6 and now on the R32T. Never had any problems stopping from big triple digit speeds in the R Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Fit braided hoses and you'll find your brakes upgraded without touching the discs Link to post Share on other sites
RYANVR6 2 Posted August 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I need to change the disks and pads anyway and have some goodridge hoses to go on when I do the work.I have found some drilled and grooved Brembo disks and pads for £90 so might try them Link to post Share on other sites
