| Brake pads Before I order some, are Redstuff ceramics still a decent choice for brake pads for a standard GTS-T, or should I look at something else? |

| Mad dog would tell you to stay away from red stuffs. Normally lots of good noises made for ebc yellowstuff. Mixed views on Ferodo DS2500 - fine for me and others, but not for all. |

| Yoko - you know what my car is in comparison to yours so I can't recommend the DS2500's enough, however, they are about £160 for the fronts. I have red stuff in my rears now and they are fine, but can squeak a tiny bit. If I could have found the DS2500's for the rears then I wouldn't have bought the redstuffs. |

| Club Treasurer & Essex Rep. Administrator Membership No. 107 | We use Yellowstuff in Honeys GTT and with the GTR Brembos, they bite really well and are superb from cold too. I have at the moment Yellowstuff on the rear of mine and DS2500 in the front. I'm personally not that keen on DS2500 and prefer Yellowstuff. I have heard more than a few bad reports on DS3000 pads, so don't bother with them. If you want the best, Performance Friction are the daddies............if you can afford them ![]() |

| Stay well clear of Redstuff, they are shite and nearly killed me on a few occasions!!! As others have said yellowstuff are good, i've used Ferrodo DS2500 and thought they were very good but did get quite a bit of brake squeel with them. MMMmmmm Performance Friction ![]() |
