brake recomendations

[DC2-PWR]

RDA arnt good, DBA all the way
For brake pads id run ferodo DS2500
Brake fluid MOTUL RBF 600
And lines im using goodridge

Nothing wrong with RDA. The importance is the pad. I found my DS2500 having a "spongy" feel after 3 laps on a 2km race circuit..

I am using Hawk dtc 60. Not cheap, but I am so satisfied with it. The DS2500 I'd leave for a street car and maybe a beginner track car. (to get the feel on where to brake). Then when you move on in experience and find the limits of the pads, you can think about upgrading.

jdmyard run rda rotors on there track k powered civics and dba are double the price i doubt they would last twice as long as long as you have a cool lap if tracking rdas are fine.
yer the ferodos are good but price em up...
fluid year fine, ill stick with castrol though.
and yep goodridge lines are my prefrence too but hel lines are good too.
im not looking for a list of popular products

im really looking for info on the products i have listed. if you have experiance with them please chime in

Yup Yonas ran his RDA on the EG civic last year. I bought the rotors off him 2nd hand, and I still have it, and I still have enough meat on it for more track days. He keeps telling me "still have the RDAs?" and has a big "LOL" when I say yes. Really impressive for something cheap. Been nearly through 6 track days near 200+ laps + whatever Yonas did.

Nice healthy fluid, caliper and good compound pads is a good start. I'd swear that the braided lines did good, it definitely made the feel better. Worth the dollar

262mm VTi-R setup meaning Calipers + Rotors yeah?

EBC Greenstuff 2000 is rated at:
Temp - 600°C [Doesn't say if it works from 0°C]
Nominal Friction Coefficient - 0.55μ

I'd be fairly careful cause that Coefficient means its VERY aggressive... Its more aggressive than my MX72s which I needed to get Dixcel HS/FS [Heat-Treated + Slotted [HS], Sper Taikyu spec material, Heat-Treated + Slotted] rotors to withstand the MX72s.

I had custom Goodridge lines made up at Race Brakes Sydney, I can attest to the quality of Goodridge, pushed them hard in my 111, good constant feel.

Personally with your setup, I'd go something similar to babybashjnr's setup, ITR 98' Calipers and Rotor size if possible as it will allow for your setup to be more durable/withstand more heat =)

EDIT: Just read your edit, I can't find specs for the Yellowstuff so can't comment man

+1

Dave I'd suggest talking to the guys who sell the products. I bought my brake parts from BYP and JDMyard. They can squeeze in the time helping to find out what you need best. BYP have real good pad options that I couldnt find anywhere in QLD and JDMyard can get me rotors to suit my custom setup.

Good luck

The DS2500 off my head only has a temperature rating of ~550°C but has quite a high Coefficent [~0.55μ] which means that while it will generate great braking power, it won't last long and starts fading as it goes past its heat range. For the average track car, try to get at least pads that will last up to ~650°C and 0.45μ+ [@ maximum] [Heavier cars need higher temps and co-efficient], ensure your brake fluid can also handle higher temps, braided lines to eliminate the rubber hose expansion issue and you'll find that you can get more laps out there
