[align=left]Hello everyone!

I'm looking to upgrade the brake pads on my '96 Z-28. I've got slotted rotors on the car, and I want to get some good pads. The car is a daily driver, and I don't do any racing in it. I do want the best stop available, however.

I'm trying to decide between EBC Red Stuff and Yellow Stuff brake pads. I realize that the reds are for the street, and the yellows are for racing, but I noticed that the specs looked better on the yellows.

I was wondering if anyone had used 'em, and what folks would recommend as a brake upgrade.

Also, has anyone had any trouble with the biasing between the front and back brakes? Seems like the car is "nosediving" a bit...Looks like I'll have to check that out.

Any help/input is greatly appreciated!

Thanks a bunch,
Josh

stick with the red street brake, the yellows really are no better, cost a bit more, and wear faster

 

I got Green Stuff and they work great on the street and on tuf driving.

 

pretty much any of them are good

 

GreenStuff is the generally accepted choice of Daily Driver type pad. I used GreenStuff on my Cavvy, and it held up to AutoX even.

Yellow-stuff has higher-operating temps, and will probably chew your rotors up when used on a DD because you'll rarely ever have them up to temp.
