    Andrew- Now all you need are transparent wheels and tires to show them off.

    Where are you in Suffolk? I spent six years at RAF Lakenheath and lived in Bury for four of them, Soham (Cambridgeshire) the other two. It was nice and quiet back in the 80s.

    Andrew- Beautiful photo and car. I love yellow Ferraris. You should put it in the Ferraris in Snow thread in Showroom.

    I really miss my pub, The Plough, in Reid. It has been 15 years since I last visited England, and my daughter lives in Dartford, so not much excuse.

    I have EBC Red Stuff pads on my Audi TT S-Type. I like them - good stopping, light dust, reasonable fade resistance, no squeal.

    Scott- More than you can say for the Pagid 4-4 Oranges on my 575M, but they do not squeal very much after 17,000 miles. Lots of brake dust, though,

    I've been toying with the idea of putting EBCs on my F355 when it comes time, although I'm not really sure that they are enough pad for the car. I keep on vacillating back and forth between types. I really don't need a race-level pad, but I do want reasonable all around performance with low dust/no squeal.

    I don't mean to hijack the thread, but what is everyone else running?

    EDIT: Remember everyone, Porsche 968 pads will fit the F355. Far greater selection of pads and much less $$$.

    Scott, this is good to know - I wonder how many people know that.

    I would give the red stuff a try, they have improved the composition a lot over recent years and it is much less dust now whilst still doing a good job.

    I just use the yellow for competition use from cold.
