does anyone have a review on the EBC yellow stuff? i've searched and only could find threads on the red and green. i have a bone stock s2k and need to get some pads soon so i wanted to get some feedback on them. anyone have any good/bad comments on them? or perhaps a link to a review.

 

I have them on my AP2. For me I think they are great for the price. I'm not that fast yet, but I have not yet got my them to fade. FYI.. I also changed my brake fluid to ATE Blue.

 

EBC ha! Thats when you have marketing people design brake pads.

Sorta like Royal Purple oil

 

You gotta run the EBC yellows for a session or two to break them in and they are pretty decent offering good braking power. The pedal feel leaves something to desire (as well as the cobalt spec VR). I would probably wait to see what cobalt has for us in the upcoming weeks. BTW, to find the cheapest pricing for pads, you can also search for RSX pads since they run the same caliper as us.

EBC pads are designed by marketing people, eh?

 

I have no expereince with them on the S2000, but do have some on other cars. I think there are better choices for just a bit more money and I wouldn't skimp on brakes. I'd tend to stick with offerings from Cobalt or Carbotech before ever touching anything EBC again.

My 2 cents. As always YMMV.

 

The EBC Yellows won't fade on the track but the touch has a inconsistant feel.

Cobalt GT-S or Hawk Blues are definatly more communicative. (Blues will stain your wheels... though..)

Its not that bad if your using them with street tires but its not the best.

 

Stain your wheels and eat through the clearcoat if given the opportunity.

 

Stock pads going back in today!!
