I think he was asking about stopping power, etc. My rear's were brembo pads they were fine. Front's were Brembos but worn so changed for EBC redstuff. Now all 8 changed for Performance Friction PF11.Z-rated.
Mate they were absolutely fine on the road at standard power. Used to squeal a bit. (Yes I've seen that thread that got, shall we say OFF TOPIC :lol
I changed my complete brake set up recently as you know. For cosmetic and upgrade reasons.
Yay "lick my...

What use? Road only, road with the occasional blast on twisty roads, road plus occasional track, complete track junkie use..........?

It depends on the intended use.
I had Brembo pads (all round) in my 6 when it arrived from Japan, they were fine on the road, no squeal, stopped ok etc but failed miserably on a track day.
There was still plenty of meat on the pads when I changed them out afterwards and I don't know if there are different types of Brembo pads. I have kept them so I could check next time I'm down the garage.

My VI TME has the standard Brembo calipers and it had Brembo pads in front and rear when I bought it. They seemed just fine on the road stopping power wise and were quiet. I would not have risked them on track though.
