Flex Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Yellow stuff (I think) google it and see what people on here have posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docwra Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Whats for? Pagid RS29's are awesome but a bit overkill for road use, for instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabbitstew Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Ferrodo 2500`s is what i put on my 350z, Worked lovely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4eay Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Thanks all, not going to track, just for normal road use and a blat every now and then. Yellow stuff seem to be well regarded on the net, but sometimes have cold squeak problems, that would do my head in. Ferrodos 2500's also good reviews but was hoping to keep the budget to £130 mark. I'll keep searching. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobPhoboS Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 There are TONS of threads just like this one, do try and search first pretty please. Anyway, I have new, standard EBC discs & yellow stuff pads - no cold squealing\squeaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyZ Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I use red stuff at the mo, bit better than standard but not as good as yellow stuff. Barely any brake dust buildup tho which is nice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it always depends on what you look for - pads / yellow / squeak etc etc Also you can always try this if no joy with forum search: 1. Go into Google. 2. Type - site:350z-uk.com [whatever your searching for here] This will only search the forum and will include archived topics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I've got ferrodos and very pleased, do shed a bit of dust, but that's how you know they're working Heard good stuff about Stoptech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brillomaster Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 just gone for redstuff fronts on mine, no squeak at cold, seems to have a decent pedal feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I have yellowstuff. No squeak, excellent cold bite, positive feel. I'd recommend them, certainly for fast road / commuting / all year round etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floydbax Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 http://www.rhdjapan.com/ These guys are having a sale on Project Mu ATM if you buy front and rears, comes in around your budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen@Clark Motorsport Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 We supply all variations of pads for road use, fast road track and race. I think as an all round pad you cannot beat the DS2500 by Ferodo. Works great from cold doesn't squeal when hot have real nice progressive bite and price wise they are sensible maybe a touch over EBC but you certainly get value for money!! Only downside to them is they do give more dust than some, but that is the only downside!! For more information see the link to our site... http://www.clarkmotorsport.net/parts/DS2500-Brake-Pads/Front/FCP1561H And if you buy from the site it is free shipping!!! (all orders over £75!) If you need any more information please just ask Rich 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
