Brakes the pads are cheap enough with EBC yellow around 150$ am axle.
But it looks like the prices doubled, crazy.
Pads are great though.
Now that you have an actual motorsports caliper I would highly advise looking into EBC's SR-11 or SR-21s pads.
They are THE ONLY pad that will take some insane abuse on track, still be whisper quiet on the street, and work just as well at 0 degrees as they do at 1000 degrees.
Myself and a handful of other guys run them in time attack and I seriously have zero complaints. You honestly won't find a better pad, if you happen to have a caliper they fit in.
I use Akebono brake pads. Little expensive but it's the best
Been using EBC Yellow Stuff for about a month now and love em. At the same time I got Continental summer tires put on as well. It's crazy how much more braking power this set up gas, however you may have to get used to the firmness, took me a couple weeks to soft stop again without a minor jerk when finally stopped, and I notice tire nose more now as well.
I would also recommend the Yellowstuff pads. They are a bit more expensive than the reds, but worth it. I've cooked my red stuffs a few times and the yellows seemed to be much more temperature resilient, I'll be switching back when these die. I also didn't experience any less cold bite from the yellows compared to the reds, which is important on a street pad.
I've always run EBC YellowStuff, and paired them with DBA 4000 T3 rotors, on all my cars, even before I did the STi Brembo swap on my WRX.
For regular use as a daily driver with regular spirited driving I really like EBC yellow pads. Honestly, those pads combined with StopTech rotors has been a great upgrade for my daily-driven car.
Since acquiring my A6, it’s had everything done in dealer. I recently got my brakes done by a friend who has a shop near my job. However, doesn’t mention that he slapped Akenono pads on the car. These Akebono pads are spanking new and they’re sooooooooooooo loud. I drove it around for a week or so, sound is still there. Took it back to him, he “sanded” something and now the car makes a god awful squeak/groan when lightly applying the brakes lmao. What’s crazy is that I’ve used Akebono in my E46 and my Mini and never had this problem. Anywho, the car stops perfectly, just fucking loudly lol.
I tried them on the track years ago. Junk!
