I have a 2006 Tiburon SE I bought as my track day car. I needed upgraded brakes. HAWK doesn't make pads for this model vehicle. But in internet search I found buybrakes.com. Not only did I find excellent pads at a terrific price, the information they supplied helped me greatly to do this upgrade.

This site is now my first choice to go find brake parts. We have 9 vehicles, so I am sure i'll be back.

Bought the ebc yellow stuff pads for my 2005 chevy tahoe.Wanted better stopping for my suv with over sized 20 inch rims.Followed the bed in procedure at 200 miles as per the directions.As of now I have 750 miles on the new pads and they are grabbing better every day.Manufacture says pads will have maximum bite after 1000 miles.If I get better bite than I have now then wow,becaues the bite the pads have now at 750 miles is 100 times better than stock pads.These pads were pricey
compared to oem pads but well worth
the money.To bad auto manufactors cant put these on new vehicles,you cant put a price on safety.

My 2005 Honda Odyssey is the first SUV-type vehicle I’ve owned, having driven high-performance vehicles prior to this (and I don’t even have kids… it’s a long story). I love the versatility it offers, from moving furniture to car-camping. Out of the box, I knew a braking components upgrade was a must (the Odyssey weighs in at close to 4,400 lbs). I replaced the OEM with DBA slotted and dimpled rotors, EBC Yellow Stuff DP41743R pads up front, and Green Stuff DP71743 on the rear. The result is a HUGE, with what feels like a 40-50% improvement in braking, and with very little fade even with remarkably hard decelerations. The consistently great braking power gives me the confidence to drive this mini-behemoth in my more habitual, sporting, fun way.

I bought these for my 2005 Scion Tc. I also bought a set for a 2003 Nissan Sentra SE-R.

Great brakes! handle well in rain and extremely well in daily driving.

I have drilled rotors on both cars and these work perfect with my drill rotors.

The only issue I have with both cars is that the pads squeal. so they are a bit noisy, but for the stopping power you receive from these (as compare to Axxis Ultimate) I would go with these any day.

price is high. Your looking at 200 basically to do all four corners but you cant compare the stopping power of these.

the brake pedal also feels just a bit stiffer than normal.

love these minus the squealing. Unsure if this is due to the shims that come with the pads (a rubber overlay/sticker) VS. the metal shims that come with normal pads.

I have a 2005 Lotus Elise. I could not find a side-by-side Yellowstuff/Redstuff comparison so after smoking my Redstuff pads at a track day last year, I upgraded to Yellowstuff for my recent track day hoping for better track performance.

I expected a decrease in street performance because my car is very light, but to my surprise, these pads do not need to be warmed up to perform well. These have great initial bite and very very good heat tolerance for the money you spend. I can't comment on rain performance because I don't use my car in the rain. They produce a moderate amount of dust for road use and can be loud initially (give them some time and they will quiet down). For track use, you can get away with these if you have a very light car and don't use slicks, but you will find yourself loosing stopping power if you push them to hard. Perhaps a little light duty for real track days, this pad is a great compromise for AutoX/Street combined use.

Compared to the Redstuff I would actually recommend the Redstuff for most people. I used Redstuff at Watkins Glen for two days last year and they had material left but the friction was pretty well gone. However, they never faded and perform a little better than Yellowstuff for daily driving. Redstuff produce almost no dust, a little squealing initially which goes away, fantastic AutoX performance, and extremely long life. My go-to pad is still the Redstuff. There is not enough of a high-temperature gain to justify the higher dust and lower lifespan of the Yellowstuff. I will be trying the blue ones next :) I am a big supporter of EBC, they have great products for great prices.
