Brake pads EBC or STOPTECH
i've had ebc rotors and and green stuff pads for about a year... they are very nice.! U have to put 500 miles on them to break in the rotor as well, seeing it conditions it 1st... . The ebc set up has wokerd wonders for me... exalent bite and supreme pedal response.!
but i want the brakes though! mmm.. StopTech.
I have also used ebc green in the rear with good results but I am now on Porterfields.
Leon was able to replace my fronts, and I only had to pay for pads (EBC Greenstuff Compound, I'll never use VW Jurid/Pagid pads again).
This is why I'm switching to Stoptechs up front!
As for Wilwoods - they are good but require more maintance due to the lack of a dust boot/seals on the pistons - unless they've changed that now. I had StopTech's on my TT and they were excellent. Of course i'd use Porterfield RS4 pads rather than the stock Axxis that comes with them, but I was very impressed with the fit and finish as well as overall power and modulation of the StopTechs.
EBC brakes, Injen SRI, ridiculous stereo, etc.
Don't rule out EBC Greenstuff - they completely transformed my wife's Camry - it couldn't stop from the factory, it couldn't stop after I spent alot of money on new pads, rotors, lines from some "brake expert", and when I installed EBCs the car is now FUN to play the stop sign game.
I've just installed ebc redstuff pads (I received this and rear green for the Passat) these days I haven't many time to use the car, but first test I noticed aren't noisy and not too bad at cold.
They chewed up my stock front rotors. But they needed to be changed anyway.
