Brake Pads

Post  dpr59 on Wed Jul 23, 2008 11:18 pm

EBC green stuff up front.

Once warm they are much better than the standard pads.
I replaced the discs at the same time, it'll be interesting to watch for increased disc wear and tear.

Oh, don't believe the bit about reduced dust......

What discs did you replace them with or were they stock? I have certainly got some upgrade kits for mine planned but they ain't cheap so have been put down the list somewhat. Also where did you source the green stuff pads from if it was online?

Got the pads direct

10% on line discount.

The discs came from
http://www.sjsportscars.co.uk/home.asp
Standard replacement.

I don't do track days so don't see the need for an AP or such upgrade.
Just wanted then to work better, which they do.

Have you tried Pagid Blues? These are ceramic, produce quite a bit of brake dust but I have found these far more effective than green stuff which used to leave me with marks elsewhere if you get my drift! Embarassed

Short answer.....no

However something to consider when linnings up for renewal.


Thanks
