i have a 300 bhp impreza and need some new pads before they fail to stop me iv been told to get stainless steel overbraided brake pipes and new pads before i change the disks and calipers etc.....what are the best make of pads to get???

Depends how you drive but Mintex 1144/1155 are very good the I have the 44 and can get them to fade with my AP 4 pots but they are quick to cool down, I will be going for the 1155 next time though!

ferodo ds2500 for me, but never tried the mintex

I found the DS2500 hard to keep on the boil on the road, good pad though!

Down to personal choice the Mintex pads are good, i've got the Xtreme ones on my Bug Eye it stops on the dot and doesn't squeal at all which is a novelty with fast road pads, cheap too.

Have had EBC Redstuff first, OK, but ate disc and did not last. Not woth the money £90 - £100

Then Ferrodo DS2500, much better but not great feel from pedal and fade a bit to be honest - I did not really like them after all the good reviews I read - bit of a disappointment. Paid £145

Now on Mintex 1166, excellent - better feel than DS2500, do not fade, not bad at all from cold, only squeel a bit when new and dust is not bad either. Will be buying these again. Paid £120 fitted.

DS2500 ive found to be absolute rubbish if you push your car hard, they fade far too early

pagid RS4-2-1 for road use, RS 29 for track use

As above - Pagid RS4.2.1 'black' for road use . A lot better than the DS2500s I had on before!

Had Pagid blue in my old Porsche and they were fantastic ABS would cut in at well over 100mph (on track of course)!!!!!!!!!
