Kate Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I am after a new set up. I currently have green stuff pads with standard discs. I will be using the car for road use and track use. A few people have recommended yellow stuff pads? I just want to see what people have for sale and obviously depending on price and reviews on the products then I'll go with it Let me know what you have for sale!!Ps - it's got to fit my standard calipers too x Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I've personally found the Ferodo DS2500 great pads to use!Amjad is selling a set for only £90 - well worth the money - http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/100876-l90-posted-ferodo-ds2500-pads-oem-fitment-turbo-na/ EDIT: Didn't see they were sold, my bad!

Glanza_Ragger Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Hi Kate. I am selling some yellow stuff pads which have have literally done about 1 mile maximum. Also some grooved discs which again. Have done less than 1 mile on them. Literally fitted them, drove from my house to my garage and parked it back up and removed them.I will also throw in a set of new pad clips incase yours are worn or your missing some as a few people are.As you can see in the pictures, the red brake-in layer on the yellow stuffs hasnt even been worn off yet. Discs look like new still also.Il do the pads with the pad clip set for £60 and the discs for £65 if you are interested. You can collect if local to Rochester and it will be cheaper Link to post Share on other sites
Kate Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 Ok cool. Why did you take them off after a mile if you don't mind me asking? Also what discs are they? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_Ragger Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Im breaking my V after 13 years of ownership lol. Never bloody used it anyway, its wasted sitting in the garage. There 40gs, literally like new still. Not a spot of surface rust or anything. People have there own preferences to pads on stock calipers but i always used to run this setup after trying mintex, hawk, greens, ds and even sards. Never had a problem with the yellows on grooves, with braided lines and a brake stopper. For fast road/track pads they actually bite very well when cold aswell. Stick some decent fluid in and your sorted Link to post Share on other sites
Kate Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 Bump. Unfortunately someone got to the brake set up above before me so needing brakes again :) Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet__SR Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Get some discs and pads from ID workz or somewhere like that. Link to post Share on other sites
Kate Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 What make are they? Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet__SR Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Go on their website and have a look. Link to post Share on other sites
Kate Posted January 19, 2018 Author Share Posted January 19, 2018 I ended up buying standard discs but still haven’t worked out what pads I should get. Very tempted with just trying yellow stuff. Has anyone had yellow stuff with standard discs? I do have uprated lines though too x Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 If you want the best then I'd recommend the Ferodo DS2500s Link to post Share on other sites
Kate Posted January 20, 2018 Author Share Posted January 20, 2018 I would love Ferodo pads but I can't justify spending that much. I am looking at the yellow stuff pads and a lot of companies only advertise the front pads but then standard rear. Do people just run yellow stuff front? Link to post Share on other sites
parker85 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I've new ebc ultimax front pads forsale Link to post Share on other sites

Most run OE Spec at the rear as they only contribute 15% of braking. EBC Yellow is the next best option imo. Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 DS2500 be worth the extra. EBC stuff never seems to be that great. I had greenstuff on a starlet and probably the worst pad ive ever experience. Sometimes the thing that makes the biggest difference to calipers is making sure the sliders are properly greased up and and all the seals are in top condition Link to post Share on other sites
