Will these be for street, AX, or track use? If track, what tires and size are you running. Blues would be a better track pad on the Evo (handle heavier cars).

good review man... makes me think the reds will be too weak, and for en evo with the weight and speed i think the yellows the best bet. its going to be mostly daily with a few track days.. but the blue is just too much of a high heat track pad.

I wouldn't use Yellows on track. They're great for autox though. I destroyed a set of Yellows in one track day, and as have a few others I know. For track, they're intended for cars <2200lbs or so. I heard that from EBC themselves. I've got a set of the blues now and I plan to test at Laguna Seca this weekend.

so would you consider the yellow good for street? or the red? and i may do like a few track days but nothing more than a handful so i dont think it is necessary to buy a whole new set for track?? idk

Brakes are a safety part. In my book, you need at least front race pads. Otherwise, you're playing with your own life/car and others.
I DD on Yellows on my SVTF. Supraboy in NTEC/TX runs the Yellows on this X MR daily.
I would get the Red/Yellow for DD and then a front set of Blues for track days. Evos are very easy to swap in/out.

Like I mentioned in another thread I am using the Blues front & rear for DD...they seem to also have some pretty good cold bite...I have yet to use them on the track but they will get some nice track use in the spring...I already signed up for a track day event at NJMP in the spring...The brake dust is kinda bad with the blues though...that is my only complaint so far...
