Brake pads Bosch or Ferodo
I put Bosch QuiteCast pads and rotors on mine a year ago and have been very happy.
I switched to Ferodo DS2500 earlier this year and like them a little more.
I know funds are low, but get a quality pad. I prefer Bosch Quiet-cast. Long lasting, no squeak/noise/vibration.
I just did mine at 60k I bought Bosch and they’ve been great.
Mymotorworld has Bosch front and backs at around £45 for pads they also have textar a good brand for a little more. I wouldn’t bother with the other cheap pads given the acceleration you can get with the car.
I installed the Bosch ceramic pads on a Hyundai Sonata, no issues with it
I like the Ferodo DS2500 for street/canyons, tho I find they’re pretty dusty.
I daily and autox ferodo ds2500, pretty happy with them, more dust and noise than an oem pad but can withstand light track work. Doesn’t sound like an awful bus/train but the occasional squeak happens.
The 3.12s have a LOT of bite and can make modulation tough on certain cars. On my E46 M3, I run DS UNO or DS1.11s. That's with the AP race kit front & rear. Didn't like the 3.12s for that application.
I recently replaced all the brake pads on my 2020 brz performance package, and it now squeals way more than before and has a noticeable clunk when pressing the brake pedal especially after reversing. I got Bosch Ceramic QuietCast pads from Rockauto, used ceramic lubricant on the back of the pads and all contact surfaces, and silicone lubricant on the pins. Once I apply a good amount of pressure to the brakes, they're very quiet for awhile but eventually start squealing again. Also I did do the bedding process and it didn't change anything, plus that wouldn't stop the clunking.
