Finally added ceramic to my upgrades list)
Had stock brakes with EBC Yellowstuff, Goodridge lines . Front ceramic was removed from german rs4. Brakes almost new - less then 10K km.
Done yesterday about 100 km street-road only. What can i say - THE BRAKES!
Waiting next spring to test then on Ring at higher temperatures)

very nice!

is it just the front? ifso, does that make a big or any difference to the brake balance?

rgds robert

Ceramics were front only

Cost? (£££££££££s I bet!)

Very nice fella, just make sure you have reprogrammed the ECU so the car knows it has ceramics on and also check to see if the ceramics have had the service campaign carried out.

Service campaign 46F2 (Replace bolts securing ceramic discs to hub).

what difference would that make from the ecu's perspective?

rgds robert

It needs to be reprogrammed to alter the pulse rate of the calliper/braking system in wet weather driving. When window wipers are activated the brake pads pulsate on the discs to keep it dry. The pulse rate is different for ceramics as they absorb water.

thats very clever - didnt know that

wow, very clever! thx!

My experience is going through rear disk's more. I've warped 2 sets now.............but hey what the hell, it's worth it

the one option I would love to have

any comments on day to day braking performance on ceramic vs. standard brakes?

I understand the heavy duty performance benefits of a track day, but can anyone comment on just daily driving these?
