Gt4 brake pads ran me about 1000-1100 for ferodo ds3.12.
I always useToyota/Honda pads. No noise, and they last longer. NAPAs best pads may or may not squeal, factory pads don't.
Ferrodo DS2500 is probably the best dual duty pad.
Still on the factory brake pads too.
Ferodo ds2500 pads which are a high performance street pad which is trackable. I took it to the track today and had zero fade or brake issues. Then, I let my crazy fast instructor drive and rip the shit out of the car for 20 min straight. By the end of the round, the brakes were smoking. But still, no fade, and those weren’t even track only pads.
I've been using the DS1.11 this year, and they've been fantastic. I have about 12 or so track days on them and still have some life.
I like the DS3.12 on my GR86
I switched to the Ferodo DSUno. I am satisfied with its performance, but they seem to struggle because of something. Today, after the track day on Saturday, I checked it and found a crack and a gnawed edge. Also, they have uneven wear, about 0.5-1mm difference. The differences are between the top and bottom parts of the pads, front and back parts and on different sides of the same rotor (inner and outer pads). Uneven wear was with the old pads as well. Recently, I installed brake air ducts, and after going out from the track, the temperature was, in the worst case, 480C degree, which looks fine for these pads. In total, I drove for about 3 hours on tracks, one on a wet track (so no hard braking) and two moderately/hard(8-9/10) braking. The brake rotors are also new, Zimmermann blank, installed with pads. The initial thickness of the pads is 16.4mm (with the plate, the plate is 5.5mm, so the "pure" pad is about 11mm) Currently, I have eaten about 4.5-5mm of the pads in 3 hours of tracking.
65k miles rav4 mine was down to 3mm which was in the red on the brake thickness gauge.
I purchased Ferodo DS2500 pads for autocross with the Brembos when my stock pads were shot. Lubed them up using CRC brake grease and even bought separate Girodisco backing plates to help with noise. It was absolutely terrible. Loud squealing all the time from 15mph to zero. Down hills, in traffic, or coming to a stop.
