Product Information
Fitment: 2005 - 2009 Legacy GT, 2002 Subaru WRX (non - turbo models as listed), 1998 - 2002 Forester, 2000 - 2004 Outback Base, 2000 - 2009 all Legacy models, 2003 - 2006 Subaru Baja all models. Yellowstuff Street Pads offer amazing features. Their high - friction formula boosts the braking effect by 30 - 40%. With zero brake fade, they're ideal for high - speed driving. They can handle repeated heavy braking without performance loss. These pads cause very little damage to discs/rotors. Suitable for short track events and races, they have a medium - hardness material that gives a great pedal feel. If you just need strong stopping power, this is your 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 situations. It has high friction even when cold, no warm - up needed for street use, and gets better when hot. It grips well even for truck weights and doesn't heat fade. ECE - tested, they work better than stock pads from cold. On Japanese cars with lower - friction pads, they offer a higher - grade stop, and on German cars, they can match or beat OE spec pads. These are high - efficiency performance and race brakes for both track and street, fast to bed - in, perfect for upgrading street vehicle brakes.
Using these EBC Yellowstuff rear brake pads is straightforward. First, make sure to install them following the standard brake pad installation process. After installation, the red 'brake in' surface coating will provide instant safe braking. For normal street use, you don't need to warm up the brakes as they have high friction from cold. But if you're planning to use them on a track, just drive a bit to get them to the right temperature for optimal performance. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the thickness of the brake pads. If they start to get too thin, it's time to replace them. Also, keep an eye on the discs/rotors for any signs of excessive wear. Remember, these pads are designed to cause very little damage to the discs, but proper maintenance will ensure a long service life. Avoid using them in extremely wet conditions for an extended period as it might affect their performance. If you notice any unusual noises or a decrease in braking power, have them checked by a professional.
