The R34 Skyline 25GT with the naturally aspirated RB25DET (non-turbo, 2-piston caliper) is a capable performer, but its factory brake pads are tuned for comfort rather than aggressive driving or track use. The EBC Racing RP-1 Track and Race Front Brake Pads (DP81200RP1) are an ultra-high performance upgrade engineered for vehicles driven hard on the track. With a stable friction coefficient of 0.45 mu that holds strong up to and beyond 750°C, these pads deliver consistent stopping power and excellent modulation even under repeated heavy braking, giving drivers precise control and confidence during high-speed corners or spirited canyon runs.
RP-1 offers a usable cold friction of 0.35 mu below 100°C, making it suitable for non-European markets where Reg 90 homologation is not required. Their standout characteristic is exceptionally low disc wear compared to most competitor race compounds, helping preserve your rotors while maintaining strong performance. The progressive pedal feel provides unrivalled modulation without the snatchy sensation or excessive noise often associated with aggressive track pads. At 25% lower friction than EBC’s RP-X compound, RP-1 is particularly well-suited for lighter or non-Big Brake Kit equipped vehicles like the 25GT, striking an ideal balance between stopping power and everyday usability.
At Terra Firma Automotive, we supply these genuine EBC Racing RP-1 Track and Race Front Brake Pads as a premium braking upgrade for R34 25GT owners seeking track-ready performance with real-world drivability. They transform your braking system into a more capable and consistent setup that supports higher speeds and harder driving while offering outstanding pad life and rotor preservation. For enthusiasts serious about track days, spirited driving, or high-performance street use on their naturally aspirated R34, these RP-1 pads are one of the most effective and well-balanced brake upgrades availabl
