SVR 2018+ Ceramic front pads

Has anyone been able to find front ceramic brake pads for the 2018+ SVR? 2020 SVR / R.I.P. 2019 SVR / 2016 D4 Landmark / 2005 D3 HSE

Yellowstuff are a ceramic compound, with decent performance

Not tried them in an SVR yet, but stop my 3 tons of Discovery 3 well enough Laughing

Yellow stuff are great, but they don’t make a front pad for an 2018+ SVR. Haven’t found a single aftermarket ceramic option yet. 2020 SVR / R.I.P. 2019 SVR / 2016 D4 Landmark / 2005 D3 HSE

I have yellow stuff in the front of my 2017 SVR and it said on the box 2015-2020 models when purchased last year. I thought the later calipers where still the same brembo items but badged as Landrover and painted red !

Good pads and work so much better than standard Landrover pads but don't feel fantastic the first time you use them when stone cold ! 2017 SVR. SVO Scafell grey Ebony interior

I stand corrected, you are right they do make Yellowstuff! But it looks like their ceramic pad is the Redstuff option? Doesn’t look like they offer that for the SVR. I’m trying to find a low dust option. I’ve run ceramic pads on my D3 and D4 for years and ceramic significantly reduce the dust. 2020 SVR / R.I.P. 2019 SVR / 2016 D4 Landmark / 2005 D3 HSE

After continuing my search, I'm even more confused. Are 2018+ RRS V8 vehicles front brakes the same as SVR? I thought that SVR's had uprated front brakes and pads. Confused 2020 SVR / R.I.P. 2019 SVR / 2016 D4 Landmark / 2005 D3 HSE

As already stated above, "yellowstuff" IS a ceramic pad. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

While Yellowstuff may have some ceramic in it, Redstuff is EBC's ceramic pad - but they don't make it in SVR size. Perhaps I should have started the thread by stating I am looking for a low dust pad that fits a 2018+ SVR rather than a ceramic pad.

Redstuff pads are no longer manufactured for 6 pot Brembos

I had a set previously in the same car, and the brakes were shocking. They'd fade after any more than 1 reasonable application, they still chucked out a Censored load of dust

They were in the car for less than 500 miles...

I have run Redstuff pads in my old 5.0L s/c for a couple of years and never had a problem with the brakes, however I certainly wouldn't describe them as Low Dust by any stretch of the imagination although to be fair I am running grooved discs. The main reason I fitted them was they were the only pad I found the stopped that dammed annoying squeak the brakes suffered from on the earlier cars under light/moderate braking with the 6pots on them. I don't know what shipping cost to the States would be but if you really want redstuff there is a company in OZ that still has stock as I bought a spare set from them recently due to them being discontinued, albeit old stock I guess. Other than pure speculation I could never find out why EBC stopped making them for SUV's.

Cheers
Col
