Product Description

The **EBC DP4325R Yellowstuff** brake pads are designed for high-performance and lightweight vintage vehicles like the Lotus Elan and classic Pontiac models. Their advanced aramid-fibre compound provides a strong initial bite and sustained braking power, making them ideal for spirited driving on both street and occasional track use.

Featuring a Brake-In™ red surface coating, these pads bed in quickly for effective rotor contact right after installation. Chamfered edges and a slotted design help to reduce noise, control pad glazing, and manage heat build-up during demanding driving. Despite their aggressive performance, they remain road-legal thanks to ECE R-90 certification, and their copper-free composition ensures they are more environmentally responsible.

These are a direct-fit replacement for the front axle on compatible models. Install them with a correct bed-in procedure to maximize both performance and longevity. After bedding, drivers will appreciate the improved braking modulation and reduced stopping distances, especially in classic sport or kit cars.
