Removed from the front of my JDM coupe which does not stop very well.

Only marking on them is WC25AA1 2 (net search returned nothing).

Still plenty of pad left so wondering whether these are suitable for street. Front discs are dull and streaky though, so that probably isn't helping.

indeed they prob are some jap crap pads. if u want good/ better stopping power on ur original set up u can replace the pads with a sports style pad. abs sell a sports pad for a good price. but if u want a good stoping pad u cant go past hawk pads they r a fero carbon compsite. they r used buy lots of european race teams and some f1 teams the only down side is when they are cold they squeak so it sounds like u have no pads. also get ur rotors machined. it will help alot

Yeah, you're probably right, but thought there was a slim chance they were something decent and someone may have seen them before. Will definitely get the rotors machined as they are ugly. Thanks for the info on the pads, I'll look them up.
