EBC Yellowstuff Front Brake Pads WRX / Legacy Base / 3.0 R / Outback / Baja/ Forester | DP41661R

These EBC Yellowstuff front brake pads are a top - notch choice for multiple Subaru models. They fit WRX from 2002 - 2005 and 2008 - 2010 (both hatchback and sedan), Legacy Base, 3.0 R, all Outback models from 2002 - 2010, all Baja models from 2003 - 2006, and all Forester models from 2003 - 2010. The Yellowstuff street pads have some amazing features. Their high - friction formula boosts the braking effect by 30 - 40%. With zero brake fade, they're perfect for high - speed driving. You can use heavy brakes repeatedly without any 'Fall - Off'. They cause very little damage to discs/rotors. They're suitable for short track events and race use. The medium - hardness material gives a great pedal feel. If all you need is powerful stopping, this is the right choice. They're ECE R 90 type approved for most cars and come with a red 'brake in' surface coating for instant safe braking after installation. The EBC yellow 1793 compound performs well in all conditions. It has high friction even when cold, no warm - up needed for street use, and gets even better when hot. They grip well even for truck weights and don't heat fade. They've passed ECE brake safety tests, performing at least as well as stock pads when cold. On Japanese cars with lower - friction FF rated pads, they offer a higher grade of stopping, and on German cars with GG pads, they can match or beat the good German OE spec pads. These are high - efficiency performance and race brakes for both track and street use, fast to bed - in, and great for upgrading your street vehicle's brakes.

Using these EBC Yellowstuff front brake pads is straightforward. Once you've installed them, thanks to the red 'brake in' surface coating, you can have instant safe braking. But it's still a good idea to drive gently for the first few miles to let the pads fully bed - in. When driving, you'll notice the improved braking power right away. For normal street use, these pads don't require any special warm - up as they have high friction even when cold. However, if you're planning to use them on a track, make sure the brakes are at an appropriate temperature for the best performance. As for maintenance, regularly check your discs/rotors for any signs of wear. Since these pads cause very little damage to the discs/rotors, you won't have to replace them as often. But if you notice any unusual noises or a decrease in braking performance, it's time to inspect the pads and the braking system. And always follow your vehicle's manufacturer's guidelines for brake maintenance.
