Brake pads?

[samgpr50]

Hi everyone,

Had a look but I need something a little more tailored.

I have a mr2 turbo currently but the brakes feel rubbish! My last one had carbotech all around and this has yellow stuff. My question is do pads go off over time? The car had been stood for 4 years and the brakes feel a little better than when I got it but not loads. Fluid has been changed etc.

Thinking about changing the disks and pads but no idea what to put on. The car will be used on the road with light track use. Thanks.

If its been stood i would definatly be chaning the pads

also check all the calipers are working (both pistons on fornt) as i had one that was slow..

I have yellow stuff on my car (the car came with them) and I HATE them... there awful .. probably just the pads .. buy carbotech and love braking again

As good as they are I can't stand the dust.

Chris Wilson fast road pads are excellent, can't fault them at all great price aswell

Been speaking to him and I think they seem like the best choice. What discs are you running?
