Brake pads

[MDMA .]

I have Performance Friction pads in the FSTI. standard gold Brembos. don't like them at all. no initial bite to them. and they have done less than 1k miles. feel wooden. maybe ok on the track once warmed up but not great for normal driving. might even swap them for standard oem pads.

The only Road legal standard for a brake pad is whether it passes an MoT.

How would the tester know what pads they are?

Exactly

•Track day & light race use for all vehicle types

So it's listed under racing, comes in Racing branded packaging and doesn't mention 'fast road use'. Seems definitive to me.

So as these are the only road legal ones out of all the "racing" products, all the rest quite clearly state not for road use.
These are a fast road/light track pad, work very well from cold and were standard fitment to the WR versions of the P1.

I run Performance Friction in my FSTi and in the Type R Impreza

Brilliant

Low noise, low dust, work well from cold, and keep working and performing and feeling the same no matter what you throw at them

DS2500 are noisy, expensive, dusty and don't work well at lower teperatures
