The EBC Yellowstuff DP42057R brake pad set delivers powerful, high‑friction braking performance ideal for sporty driving and spirited street use. Engineered with an aramid‑fiber compound designed to provide strong initial “bite” even from cold, it improves stopping power and pedal feel — helping your Porsche slow harder, brake more consistently, and maintain better control under aggressive driving demands. These are a great upgrade if you want more braking confidence than stock pads without sacrificing daily‑drive usability.

Operating Temperature Range: Cold start to ~900 °F (≈ 480 °C) without fade
Pad Spec / FMSI Code: D1389 (common pad shape for many Porsche front caliper/rotor assemblies)
Certification / Street‑Legality: ECE R90 certified for legal street use (in markets where that applies)
Strong Cold‑Bite & Consistent Pedal Feel — High‑friction compound delivers dependable braking performance from the first stop, even when cold, making city and spirited driving safer and more predictable.
High Heat & Fade Resistance — Designed to maintain friction under high temperatures from repeated braking, making it suitable for spirited driving, canyon runs, or occasional track exposure.
Shimmed, Slotted & Chamfered Design — Reduces noise, improves pad seating, and helps manage heat and brake dust for smoother, quieter operation.
Street‑Friendly Yet Performance‑Ready — Offers a big step up over OEM pads in stopping power and pedal feel, while still remaining suitable for daily driving and regular use.
Rotor‑Friendly Compound — Minimally abrasive to cast‑iron rotors compared with many aggressive race‑style pads, helping extend rotor lifespan when pads are properly bedded.
