For those of you that track your car. What pads are u using. I was recommended ebc yellow stuff. But apparently they dont make any for the rears. They only make few toyota rears. Nothing that i think is compatible with the celica.
Planning on using yellow in the front and red in the back. Since the front is the one that makes more difference. Wanted to see what other guys are doing. Even with other cars. Tried to start a decent conversation in the other place. Lol, i would have been better to talk about something else... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Powerstop apparently has recently come out with a Track Day series of pads, the only feedback I could really find was from Corvettes doing HPDE events but it was favourable. I think they said the pads were about $100 a pair, so if they're made for your car it might be worth looking into. I was going to use Raybestos EHT for autocross, really haven't found anything for trackdays but I'll probably look into the Powerstop since I'll be putting on C5 brakes.

Raybestos EHT are great daily pads but I don't think they'd stand up to track use even in autocross. Stoptech sport or whatever they're calling them now would be better suited to that task, though they're not really a track pad either they do have a higher max temp and don't fade as they approach it. I've cooked mine pretty good a couple times and they work perfectly while cooking and then after cooking with no extra noises. Bedding them in is less than fun, heat till fully faded and repeat once more after cooling, repeat as needed to keep pad film on the rotors if driving gently. -------------------- |
