Pagid Blues are the best all round pad I have used on the Coupe , no fade atall and they pull up slightly better than the Mintex 1144's as well. The only thing against them is the price of a pair, but then you pays what you get for Joe

I have been running Carbotech Panther Plus for one year.
They are intended for track use but I have found them good for both track and road.
Last year I ran the car on tracks like Anderstorp, Spa & Nürburgring with no sign of fade what so ever. This was with standard DOT 5.1 fluid (fresh of course).
This year I will be putting the car on race tiers and will then when the Panther Plus’s are worn out, be "upgrading" to Carbotech XP8 pads and race fluid.

another vote for Ferodo DS2500 Excellent cold bite and no fade braking from 150 to 70ish. The only problem that I had was that is a bit noisy

I can also recommend the Carbotech Panther Plus. Amazing brake performance. Tested both on race track and standard road use. Good stuff!

I have just fitted the ebc yellow, and can say out of std, 1144 mintex and 1155 mintex these are the best i have had. so far only done 60 miles, so don't want to review them yet! also about £100 so cheaper than the pagid. Now using 3g 10 groove as well.
