Hi,

 

Couldn’t find a detailed write up on pads, anyone recommend some decent (Better than standard) / well priced pads?

 

Cheers

Yellow stuff (I think) google it and see what people on here have posted.

Whats for? Pagid RS29's are awesome but a bit overkill for road use, for instance.

Just bought a set of these but not fitted yet, so cant comment on performance.

Ferrodo 2500`s is what i put on my 350z, Worked lovely!

[N4eay]

Thanks all, not going to track, just for normal road use and a blat every now and then. Yellow stuff seem to be well regarded on the net, but sometimes have cold squeak problems, that would do my head in. Ferrodos 2500's also good reviews but was hoping to keep the budget to £130 mark. I'll keep searching.

 

Cheers

I have yellow stuff on mine, my brakes are set up for track and day use, somewhere on here is a thread from Zmanalex showing correct bedding in procedures..

Thanks, any problems with squeaking from cold?

There are TONS of threads just like this one, do try and search first pretty please.

Anyway, I have new, standard EBC discs & yellow stuff pads - no cold squealing\squeaks

[RickyZ]

I use red stuff at the mo, bit better than standard but not as good as yellow stuff. Barely any brake dust buildup tho which is nice.

Thought there would be, but multiple searches brought nothing up for me. I am an avid user of search.

I think it always depends on what you look for - pads / yellow / squeak etc etc

 

Also you can always try this if no joy with forum search:

 

1. Go into Google.

2. Type - site:350z-uk.com [whatever your searching for here]

 

This will only search the forum and will include archived topics.

I've got ferrodos and very pleased, do shed a bit of dust, but that's how you know they're working

 

Heard good stuff about Stoptech.

[brillomaster]

just gone for redstuff fronts on mine, no squeak at cold, seems to have a decent pedal feel.

[ChrisB]

I have yellowstuff. No squeak, excellent cold bite, positive feel. I'd recommend them, certainly for fast road / commuting / all year round etc.

[Floydbax]

http://www.rhdjapan.com/ These guys are having a sale on Project Mu ATM if you buy front and rears, comes in around your budget.

[Ewen@Clark Motorsport]

We supply all variations of pads for road use, fast road track and race. I think as an all round pad you cannot beat the DS2500 by Ferodo. Works great from cold doesn't squeal when hot have real nice progressive bite and price wise they are sensible maybe a touch over EBC but you certainly get value for money!!

 

Only downside to them is they do give more dust than some, but that is the only downside!!
