I'm waiting for EBC brakes to come out with yellowstuff pads for the CX70/90; then I will get those!
A friend had a Cadillac ATS-V and putting EBC pads on it was a whole different thing, even on the Brembo 6 pot calipers.
The OE Brembo pads are "okay" and the EBC Blue Stuff will give you better bite though they're still dusty. I went with 2-piece rotors and Endless MX72+ pads.
My suggestions : Oil cooler, change break pads with ceramics (EBC redstuff), gallery gasket, replace half the exhaust line (the genuine rear silencer is a crime and heavy), rear tyres 285/35R19. Those things will make the car better, more reliable, safer (this car is 1.6t dry, you could be surprised with default brake attack) and widespread among Z lovers.
Now I’m a much happier camper with my EBC Yellowstuff’s.
I've heard good stuff about the Hawk ones but I use Hawk HPS myself
Consider Carbotech pads. I ran XP12/XP10 combo. They worked well on my C5. I tried the Hawk DTC70/60 combo and didn't like how fast they could eat a rotor. The stopping force on them is incredible.
Just put Zimmerman rotors and the Hawk Street pads on my non- PP gti. These pads unfortunately shift up and down and make a loud “clank” when braking on transition from 1st to reverse. They still bite great
I had DTC70s for about 2 months and tossed them without even using them up. Terrible pad. Never used a Hawk pad I liked.
EBC is known as the Exploding Brake Company and they still live up to that name...
