Rear brake pad recommendations

[nickch]

Hi all,

As the track day is coming in just over a month, I'm trying to sort out my brakes.

Car is Bugeye V7, non-STi. (so 2 pot fronts and 1 pot rears)

So far on the list:

* DBA 9000 front rotors

* Front pads: DS2000

* Stock rear rotors

* Rear pads: ????

* Motul RBF 600 fluid

I seem to have most basis covered apart from the rear pads.

I'm wondering if it is really worth it to get high performance pads for the rears for the general track day use, or would I be okay with standard pads?

Can someone recommend me any decent pads for this current setup?

Bearing in mind that purchasing the other parts on that list has already put a hole in my pocket and would like the most economic but still usable solution.

Cheers,

Nick

Just put stock rear ones man

They do only a small amount of breaking and mostly are fine

Funny enough I just came from a mates house where he had done his pads and the fronts were used and rears were still good

His one is a v7 Wrx as well lol

Anyway standRd pads ought to be ok for what u Wana do

Plus being first time on track im sure u won't tax the pads like Ken block lol

What u have listed above is fairly sorted as far as breaks go for this round anyway

yeah i ran average rear pads on my car for a few trackdays, didn't have any real ill effects, like pappu said they do minimal braking on the rear.

if you really want to change them I'd recommend running the same as the front, just so it's balanced.
