Now I'm using ebc red stuff pads and they make less dust than the hawks.
Currently running this setup minus the master bracket on VR6 brakes. EBC reds are good for low dust. I like them better than Hawks for that. When they are cold they can take a bit of warming up.
I installed EBC Red pads about 2 weeks ago. I don't have any squeaking problems, pedal is super stiff and grabs incredibly fast. The dust is really low in comparison to the stock pads. At this point my white wheels would be covered in black. The dust on there now is acceptable in my opinion. I know others don't like the EBC brakes. So far, I'm very happy with them. Hope this helps you.
I have run the Carbotech 1521 on the street and can confirm they are low dust and noise, but not the most performance oriented.
I just changed my pads and rotors at all four corners asI was always very unhappy with the stock pads and rotors; mostly because of noise in the cold and the amount of brake dust the pads made. Upon inspection of my rotors, with barely 30k miles on them, there was a startling amount of material removed and channeling from the pads. I would totally recommend you replace the rotors at the same time. I too went with the ECS slotted and drilled rotors with Carbotech 1521 pads and love the setup. Very quiet, very little dust and good performance.
I got the EBC Red brake pads installed front and rear. I ever so slightly cleaned the wheels the same day they were installed. So far so good. I haven't noticed any large amounts of brake dust. Stopping is great. Brake pedal is more touchy now. Overall I'm very happy with them!
Found EBC Yellow stuffs for the TTRS calipers for $140 (I've found EBC yellow stuffs a good compromise semi-squeal daily drive and decent on the track)
EPC light on usually is coils or spark. find misfire plug and then move to another and see if it moves if it moves then its coil if not replace spark plugs and try again.
Yellowstuff lastet one track day (6 sessions of 30min) and maybe 200 miles to get to the track. It went metal to metal about 5 minutes before end of day. I liked the bite they had and I had absolutely no fading
The negatives with EBC Yellow stuff is that they produce a HUGE amount of dust, and eat through rotors quickly. I had them on my wifes CX-9 with a set of their drilled and slotted rotors, they were horrible! The rotors had a vibration at anything over 45mph, and the dust they created was ridiculous.
