Ep'd Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Which are the best ones for a reasonable price. I'm running standard setup on my glanza. As they are squeaking.Any suggestions?Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike_trx Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Found the limits of green stuff pads in the standard calipers quite a few times, so i'd probably avoid them if you plan on giving it hell for a decent length of drive on the twisties! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fro Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Never had problems with yellowstuff pads with grooved discs on the road. Ran ferodo ds2500 pads on track with the same discs and 5.1 fluid again with no problems. The ds2500 are quite expensive and pretty bad when cold so maybe not great for city driving Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnold Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Yellow pads are pretty good. Great when cold, amazing when hot, just keep an eye on them as cracks appeared in mine after a couple of years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 green stuff, red stuff, yellow stuff, all over rated i have tried them all. The best pads available are the sard ones but they aint cheap at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike@TD.co.uk Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Yellowstuff pads work well, run some decent brake fluid and braided lines and they'll do you fine. Cheers Mike JonesTuning Developments Ltd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arnold Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 An alternative pad is Carbotech, which I know lots of high powered (400hp+) cars run. They do make pads for the starlet too! £140 odd a set tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie1st Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I've always found yellow stuff to be decent, alright I'm running them on 6 pot ksports! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ep'd Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 I take it that blueprint are crap then lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I wasn't that impressed with yellowstuffs, I now run ferodo ds2500 and I'm mega impressed with them. I do run WMS calipers though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I run £20 pads with my GT4 setup and they are beast haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wardy Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I have WMS Brakes and Run DS3000 Pads and there awesome! Not quite good on the road but hooning or track driving there the best IMO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
