EBC Brakes Yellowstuff compound is a high performance road pad that is also suitable for track use and works really well from cold.
If you want the ultimate in high friction braking, this is the pad to choose.
Brakes feel superb from first touch of the pedal and stay effective right up to race temperatures.

EBC Brakes Yellowstuff is designed for faster, higher horsepower cars where maximum stopping power is the prime requirement as well as for track use.
The dust rating is less than OEM parts.
Where necessary, all pads come with edge chamfers, noise reduction shims and OEM hardware.
All EBC Brakes Yellowstuff pads feature the Brake-In surface coating which helps pads to seat quickly after installation.
All EBC compounds are performance enhanced with CERAMIC GRANULES making them a true premium upgrade pad range for all vehicles.
BLUESTUFF
The EBC Brakes Bluestuff NDX race formula is an ultra high friction race pad with a friction level peaking above 0.6 under braking that will generate more G force than most, if not all pads out there. NDX is capable of street use as it bites well from cold.

The big advantage of this pad is that it is one of the world's FIRST AND ONLY out of the box pre-bedded race pads that is surface "heat seared or scorched" at the factory. This gives amazing reductions in pad bed-in time on street or track. Also, being a non-metallic aramid base, NDX reduces rotor wear and eliminates the firework display spark emitted in high speed braking by competitive semi-metallics although NDX is NOT a low dust pad. There is an amount of DUST with these pads.
Disc wear is however drastically reduced and pad life enhanced. Discs wear smooth and flat without ridges.
All EBC compounds are performance enhanced with CERAMIC GRANULES making them a true premium upgrade pad range for all vehicles.
RP-1
EBC Racing's RP-1 compound is an ultra-high performance track and race pad designed for high performance vehicles driven hard on track. RP-1 has a very stable friction coefficient of 0.45 mu up to and beyond 750 degrees centigrade, making it an excellent performer for even the most demanding vehicle applications.
Due to its relatively high friction coefficient, RP-1 is not Reg 90 homologated for road use within Europe and is therefore illegal for use on the public road. Unlike some other race pads on the market, RP-1 offers a usable cold friction of 0.35 mu below 100 C meaning it can be safely used as a road pad for non-European markets where Reg 90 homologation is not mandatory. At 100 C the friction gently climbs to 0.45 mu and stays there up to and beyond the designed upper working temperature range of 750 C. Read More...
RP-1 boasts good pad life but the unique characteristic of RP-1 is that it boasts exceptionally low disc wear, lower than virtually all other competitor race materials tested by EBC Racing. RP-1 has a progressive pedal feel with unrivalled modulation. RP-1 does not have the snatchy pedal feel or high levels of noise often associated with other race pads on the market.
Compared to EBC Racing�s other track pad RP-X, RP-1 has a 25 percent reduction in friction coefficient across its working temperature range making RP-1 the more suitable choice for light-medium weight cars, cars with non EBC Big Brake Kits fitted, or vehicles with no ABS. For heavy or inherently under-servoed vehicles which suit a very aggressive pad, EBC Racing�s other track material RP-X may be preferable.
RP-X
EBC Racings� RP-X compound is an ultra-high performance track and race pad designed for performance vehicles driven hard on track and for dedicated race cars. RP-X has a very stable friction coefficient of 0.55 mu up to and beyond 850 C, making it an excellent performer for even the most demanding vehicle applications. RP-X also has a high friction level from cold, requiring no warmup to achieve maximum braking effect which makes this material well suited for sprint race and hill climb events. Although RP-X is not R90 homologated for use on the public roads in EU member states, the fact this material possesses excellent cold performance means RP-X can be safely used for driving to/from motorsport events (where local laws permit).

EBC Racing does however emphasise that RP-X has been developed for peak on-track performance, meaning higher levels of brake dust and brake noise should be expected. RP-X has comparable disc wear to many other popular track/race materials, however RP-X disc wear is considerably greater than EBC Racing�s other track pad RP-1 which results in high levels of brake dust.
Compared to RP-1, RP-X has a 25 per cent increase in friction coefficient across its working temperature range with a much more �positive� initial bite. This characteristic potentially makes RP-X more suitable on heavy or inherently under-servoed vehicles. For light-medium weight vehicles, cars with non EBC Big Brake Kits fitted, or vehicles with no ABS, the less fierce nature of EBC Racing�s other track material RP-1 may be preferable.
