  • EBC Brake Rotors and Pads

    I searched the forums and didn't find anything about EBC brakes. Does anyone know anything about the company? http://www.ebcbrakes.com/Automotive.html. They're offering front & rear discs for GT and base, and several sets of pads for varying performance levels. I'm looking for something good for everyday street driving and occasional track use. It looks like either their "Green Stuff" or "Red Stuff" is what I want. Any thoughts?

    Quality products! I have heard great things from some GP guys though I have never used them.

      I had the "Green Stuff" pads on a 2003 Mercedes C230 Kompressor Coupe
      and a 2000 VW Jetta 1.8T.

      I was after a decrease in brake dust with good "cold performance" reviews.

      They were worth the $$$$$


      Thanks,

        EBC of today makes a really good pad. A couple years ago they were that great, but now they have their act together.

        I would do greens. The red are a bit more aggresive, and even the greens will impress you compared to the factory pads.

        I know nothing about their rotors.

          Well, I was only thinking Red stuff because they recommend it for heavy cars or cars with 200+ hp. But I assume it wears faster and I probably wouldn't be going on the track often enough to justify it.

            It doesn't wear faster really. It has a higher heat range, so they may not work so good on a cold morning first thing, and they most likely make a bit of noise if you are just normal braking until they get nice and hot.
