EBC 06-13 Audi A3 2.0 Turbo (Girling rear caliper) Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads

If you're looking to get more out of your braking system, especially if you plan on hitting the track or just want a more responsive pedal on the street, these EBC Yellowstuff rear brake pads are a solid option. They're designed to fit a range of vehicles, including popular models like the Audi A3, Volkswagen GTI, and Audi TT, and are specifically made for cars using the Girling rear caliper system. These pads are built with an aramid fiber base, which means they offer strong braking performance right from a cold start, and they actually get stronger as they heat up during hard driving. This makes them versatile enough for daily driving and track days without needing a warm-up lap.

What's notable about Yellowstuff is their high friction compound, which translates to better stopping power, especially at higher speeds. While they are a performance-oriented pad and not a low-dust option (EBC suggests their Redstuff pads if low dust is your priority), they've proven their worth in various racing series, including the Swedish Camaro Cup and Mazda MX5 Miata competitions. They've also been tested extensively by SCCA and NASA drivers in the US, with positive feedback indicating they are rotor-friendly for vehicles up to 2000 lbs or 200 BHP. This means you can push your car a bit harder knowing your brakes are up to the task.
